contents Calcareous nannofossil range charts for Leg 174A sites on the New Jersey continental margin are presented in this report, and nannofossil biostratigraphy is established. Nannofossil biostratigraphic resolution is low in shallow-water Sites 1071 and 1072, where nannofossils are generally rare or frequently absent. Site 1073 yields generally common to abundant nannofossils, which allows a fairly detailed nannofossil biostratigraphy for the entire Pleistocene through upper Eocene sequence. Quantitative and semiquantitative nannofossil data for the upper Pleistocene section from Site 1073 reveal an average sedimentation rate of about 80 cm/k.y. The unusually high sedimentation rate makes this calcareous section very valuable for high-resolution studies.
