Figure F42. Age models, Hole C0011B. A. Age model for nannofossil and magnetostratigraphy produced separately. Depths of nannofossil and magnetostratigraphic datum events identified for Hole C0011B and listed in Table T11 are plotted versus expected ages. Vertical bars = uncertainty of depth, nannofossil horizontal error bars = uncertainty between oceans (Pacific/Atlantic/Mediterranean). Sedimentation rate is calculated based on least squares fitting by linear regression line using the datum events with equal weight. For magnetostratigraphy, error bars represent uncertainty of polarity boundary recognition. Errors on astronomical tuning of ATNTS2004 (Lourens et al., 2004) for age interval involved are typically <0.2% (smaller than the radius of circles). Purple ages shown on lines representing unit boundaries are boundary ages estimated from magnetostratigraphic control points (purple curve) including errors of control points and linear fitting.
