contents The grain-size distribution of 223 unconsolidated sediment samples from four DSDP sites at the mouth of the Gulf of California was determined using sieve and pipette techniques. Shepard's (1954) and Inman's (1952) classification schemes were used for all samples. Most of the sediments are hemipelagic with minor turbidites of terrigenous origin. Sediment texture ranges from silty sand to silty clay. On the basis of grain-size parameters, the sediments can be divided into the following groups: (1) poorly to very poorly sorted coarse and medium sand; and (2) poorly to very poorly sorted fine to very fine sand and clay.
