Dating analysis from DSDP Hole 90-594

Listed in PANGAEA

Date-32 is a fast and easily used computer program developed to date Quaternary deep-sea cores by associating variations in the earth's orbit with recurring oscillations in core properties, such as carbonate content or isotope composition.

Description

Starting with known top and bottom dates, distortions in the periodicities of the core properties due to varying sedimentation rates are realigned by fast Fourier analysis so as to maximise the spectral energy density at the orbital frequencies.

This allows age interpolation to all parts of the core to an accuracy of 10 kyrs, or about 1.5% of the record duration for a typical Brunhes sequence. The influence of astronomical forcing is examined and the method is applied to provide preliminary dates in a high-resolution Brunhes record from DSDP Site 594 off southeastern New Zealand.
