Abstract:
Laboratory measurements of physical properties are important because the results may be applied to the interpretation of seismic and other types of geophysical data, and because they can be used to estimate the in situ physical properties of different lithologies present beneath the sea floor. In this chapter, wet-bulk densities and compressional-wave velocities, measured at elevated confining pressures, are reported for a suite of seven sediment samples recovered on DSDP Leg 60. Of the seven samples studied, two are mudstones, two are vitric tuffs, and three are chalks. All but one of the samples are from Hole 459B, near the eastern limit of the Mariana fore-arc region. In five cases, velocities were measured parallel and perpendicular to bedding to test for velocity anisotropy.
