contents Biogenic opal concentrations were measured on bulk sediments recovered at Ocean Drilling Program Sites 1123, 1124, and 1125 off North Island of New Zealand in the southwest Pacific. Site 1124 showed opal contents ranging from approximately 2 to 8 wt%, which is relatively high compared to other sites. The subbottom maximum in biogenic opal content located between 1.0 and 1.5 m composite depth can be recognized at each site. Patterns of biogenic opal content in the uppermost parts of the cores appear to reflect the surface ocean settings relating to the migration of the Subtropical Convergence Zone.
