Radiolarians from ODP Leg 116 holes

Cores recovered from three sites of Leg 116 were studied for radiolarians. Generally, radiolarians were absent from most samples prepared for examination. Moderate to...

Benthonic foraminifera of ODP Site 116-717

We report on benthic foraminifer results from Site 717 in the Distal Bengal Fan. Only 80 out of 380 samples contained useful benthic foraminifer information. However, we were...

Neogene calcareous nannofossils in ODP Leg 116 holes

The three sites (717, 718, and 719) drilled on the distal Bengal Fan during ODP Leg 116 cored turbidite sediments almost exclusively. Calcareous nannofossils were recovered...

Sedimentary history and chemical characteristics of clay minerals from the Be...

The purpose of this study is to clarify the sedimentary history and chemical characteristics of clay minerals found in sediments deposited in the distal part of the Bengal Fan...

Isotopic composition of different sediments size fractions and vermiculites f...

Clastic sediments in the Bengal Fan contain a Neogene history of erosion and weathering of the Himalaya. We present data on clay mineralogy, major element, stable and radiogenic...

Osmium isotope composition of leachates and bulk sediment from ODP Holes in t...

Os isotopic compositions and OS and Re concentrations were measured in H2O2-H2SO4 leachates and bulk sediment samples from Holes 717C and 718C of ODP Leg 116 in the Bengal Fan....

Abundances and δ¹³C values of n-alkanes extracted from sediment samples of OD...

Siwalik paleosol and Bengal Fan sediment samples were analyzed for the abundance and isotopic composition of n-alkanes in order to test for molecular evidence of the expansion...
