Abstract

We conducted detailed paleomagnetic measurements on the sedimentary sections recovered at Integrated Ocean Drilling Program (IODP) Sites U1403, U1408, U1409, and U1410 during Expedition 342 to update the shipboard magnetostratigraphy. The intervals with negative inclinations are more clearly defined than the shipboard results, and this result has allowed us to refine chron boundary depths. In most cases, the chron boundary depths determined in the present study are not substantially different from the shipboard ones (less than ~1 m), but some boundaries have large differences. We also identify some new reversal boundaries that could not be resolved on board.
