Sediment depth is given in mcd. 208-1262 includes 208-1262B, 208-1262C and 208-1262D. Time (kyr) at ODP Site 690 relative to the P-E boundary set to 55 Ma. For tie points G and H, because of the large differences in the two age models, we used the means for the 208 age model. Magnetic susceptibility (MS) tie points are from ODP Leg 208 Initial Reports volume (Zachos, Kroon, Blum et al., 2004). For Sites 1262, 1266, and 1267, the depths of tie points C and B were estimated by linear interpolation between points D and A using the temporal relationship established at Site 1263.
