| contents | The tops of the Emperor chain guyots, which were drilled during Leg 55, lie above the carbonate compensation depth (CCD), as well as above the foraminiferal dissolution level, i.e., lysocline. They are therefore the sites of accumulation of pelagic foraminiferal nannofossil ooze, such accumulation having taken place here since the moment of the seamounts' subsidence and the termination of shallow-water carbonate accumulation which was formerly developed on their tops. But the existence of strong bottom currents over the tops and slope scarps limits, and at some places reduces to zero, sedimentation of any pelagic particles. At such areas there are formed thick iron-manganese crusts. The seamounts drilled on Leg 55 are within the northern (Boreal) belt of biogenic silica accumulation, which existed in the northern Pacific throughout the Neogene. This circumstance presupposes a possible enrichment of the relatively fine-grained sediments with biogenic silica - diatoms and radiolarians. |
