Fig. 4: Sedimentary facies and depositional features of IODP drilling sites.
From: South China Sea records Late Miocene reorganization of western Pacific deep circulation
Interpretation of sedimentary facies is based on lithology and sedimentary structures from drill cores. Age model is based on biostratigraphic and magnetostratigraphic data16,56 in Fig. 2c. Main seismic units, contourite drift evolution, paleodepth reconstruction13,29, and dominant water masses are indicated in the right column.
