Abstract:
The southern Caribbean basins are thought to be part of a relatively old and geologically stable crustal plate. Although surrounded by belts of high earthquake activity, the central Caribbean is seismically quiet. The region also constitutes a quiet magnetic zone and appears to have resisted all of the surrounding forces related to ocean floor spreading. In addition to providing considerable information on the general geologic history of the Caribbean region, paleontologic studies on cores at Site 29 were expected to provide valuable data on phylogenetic trends within the planktonic foraminifera and calcareous nannoplankton, furnishing more accurate criteria for intercontinental stratigraphic correlation. The work reported here is a biostratigraphic summary of available samples. only the most important and biostratigraphically significant components of the faunas have been noted. No attempt has been made to give an exhaustive faunal analysis of the samples seen.

From 1983 until 1989 NOAA-NCEI compiled the NOAA-MMS Marine Minerals Geochemical Database from journal articles, technical reports and unpublished sources from other institutions. At the time it was the most extended data compilation on ferromanganese deposits world wide. Initially published in a proprietary format incompatible with present day standards it was jointly decided by AWI and NOAA to transcribe this legacy data into PANGAEA. This transfer is augmented by a careful checking of the original sources when available and the encoding of ancillary information (sample description, method of analysis..) not present in the NOAA-MMS database.
