ForewordBy the National Science Foundation
The Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) is a major component of the National ScienceFoundation^ continuing commitment to the study of the geologic processes that have shapedour planet and modified its environment. The scientific problems being addressed range fromthe geologic history and structure of continental margins to the processes responsible for theformation and alteration of the ocean's crust. In a time of enhanced public and scientificinterest in problems of global change, ODP provides critical data on changes in oceancirculation, chemistry, and biologic productivity and their relation to changes in atmosphericcirculation and glacial conditions. The Ocean Drilling Program has a unique role in addressingthese problems, since it is the only facility for continuously sampling the geologic record ofthe ocean basins, which cover 70% of our planet.
The ODP is the successor to the Deep Sea Drilling Project (DSDP), which was a globalreconnaissance of the ocean basins. DSDP began operations in 1968 at Scripps Institution ofOceanography, using a 400-foot drillship, the Glomar Challenger. DSDP was supportedinitially by only the National Science Foundation, with extensive involvement of internationalscientists who were invited to participate on drilling cruises. As this international interestcontinued to grow in the early 1970's, formal participation in the project was offered to theinternational geoscience community. In 1975, five nations (France, the Federal Republic ofGermany, Japan, the United Kingdom, and the Soviet Union) accepted this commitment tojoint planning and conduct of the project, as well as to financial support for operations. ThisInternational Phase of Ocean Drilling (IPOD) continued to 1983. Although the Challengerhad reached the limits of her capabilities, the remarkable scientific success of the DSDP andthe new questions it had generated demanded a continuing capability for drilling in the oceans.
The Ocean Drilling Program was organized, international participation was coordinated,a new drillship (the JOIDES Resolution) was contracted and outfitted, and her first cruisesailed in early 1985, within 18 months of the retirement of the Challenger. This is a remarkableaccomplishment that reflects the efforts and excellence of the Joint Oceanographic Institu-tions, Inc. (prime contractor for ODP), Texas A&M University (science and ship operator),Lamont-Doherty Geological Observatory (logging operator), and the international sciencecommunity in organizing and planning the new program. It was argued in planning for theODP that a larger drillship was required to provide space for the increasing U.S. andinternational demand for shipboard participation, improved and expanded laboratory capa-bilities, and improvements in coring and logging systems. A larger and better equipped vesselwould also provide better stability and working conditions in high-latitude regions of theoceans. The success of the JOIDES Resolution has proven the wisdom of these earlyarguments.
ODP now has operated in all oceans except the ice-covered Arctic. We have drilled abovethe Arctic circle and within sight of the Antarctic continent. Over 1000 scientists from 25nations have participated in the initial ODP cruises. The larger scientific parties have allowedan increased emphasis on student participation and training aboard ship. The state-of-the-artlaboratories support rapid and complete initial analyses of samples that provide both scientificresults and guide subsequent shore-based studies. Nearly 1000 additional scientists have usedthese data and requested samples from the program's core and data archives for continuingstudy. The geochemical and geophysical logging capability is unsurpassed in either academiaor industry and has provided remarkable new data with which to study the Earth. Newexperiments to measure and monitor geologic processes have been deployed in ODP bore-holes.
The international commitment to ocean drilling has increased in the ODP. In addition toour five partners in IPOD—France, the Federal Republic of Germany, Japan, the SovietUnion, and the United Kingdom—two consortia have joined ODP: Canada-Australia and theEuropean Science Foundation (representing Belgium, Denmark, Finland, Greece, Iceland,Italy, The Netherlands, Norway, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, and Turkey). The 20 countriesof the ODP represent the community of nations that have a global interest in the geosciencesand oceanography. This global scientific participation has assured the program's scientific
excellence by focusing and integrating the combined scientific knowledge and capabilities ofthe program's 20 nations. It has allowed problems of a global nature to be addressed byproviding databases and background studies which are openly shared for planning andinterpreting drilling results. It has eased problems of access to territorial waters, allowingcomparative studies to be done among oceans. Finally, the international sharing of programcosts has allowed this important and large program to proceed without detrimental impact tothe research budgets of any one nation.
The Ocean Drilling Program, like its predecessor, DSDP, serves as a model for planning,conducting, and financing research to address problems of global importance. The NationalScience Foundation is proud to have a leading role in this unique international program, andwe look forward to its continuing success.

ForewordBy Joint Oceanographic Institutions, Inc.
This volume presents scientific and engineering results from the Ocean Drilling Program(ODP). The papers presented here address the scientific and technical goals of the program,which include providing a global description of geological and geophysical structures includ-ing passive and active margins and sediment history, and studying in detail areas of majorgeophysical activity such as mid-ocean ridges and the associated hydrothermal circulations.
The Ocean Drilling Program, an international activity, operates a specially equippeddeep-sea drilling ship, the JOIDES Resolution (Sedco/BP 471), which contains state-of-the-artlaboratories, equipment, and computers. The ship is 471 feet (144 meters) long, is 70 feet (21meters) wide, and has a displacement of 18,600 short tons. Her derrick towers 211 feet (64meters) above the waterline, and a computer-controlled dynamic-positioning system stabilizesthe ship over a specific location while drilling in water depths up to 27,000 feet (8230 meters).The drilling system collects cores from beneath the seafloor with a derrick and drawworksthat can handle 30,000 feet (9144 meters) of drill pipe. More than 12,000 square feet (1115square meters) of space distributed throughout the ship is devoted to scientific laboratoriesand equipment. The ship sails with a scientific and technical crew of 51 and a ship's crew(including the drill crew) of 62. The size and ice-strengthening of the ship allow drilling inhigh seas and ice-infested areas as well as permitting a large group of multidisciplinaryscientists to interact as part of the scientific party.
Logging, or measurements in the drilled holes, is an important part of the program. ODPprovides a full suite of geochemical and geophysical measurements for every hole deeper than1300 feet (400 meters). For each such hole, there are lowerings of basic oil-industry tools:nuclear, sonic, and electrical. In addition, a borehole televiewer is available for imaging thewall of the hole, a 12-channel logging tool provides accurate velocity and elastic propertymeasurements as well as sonic waveforms for spectral analysis of energy propagation nearthe wall of the hole, and a vertical seismic profiler can record reflectors from below the totaldepth of the hole.
The management of the Ocean Drilling Program involves a partnership of scientists andgovernments. International oversight and coordination are provided by the ODP Council, agovernmental consultative body of the partner countries, which is chaired by a representativefrom the United States National Science Foundation. The ODP Council periodically reviewsthe general progress of the program and discusses financial plans and other managementissues. Overall scientific and management guidance is provided to the operators of theprogram by representatives from the group of institutions involved in the program, called theJoint Oceanographic Institutions for Deep Earth Sampling (JOIDES).
The Executive Committee (EXCOM), made up of the administrative heads of the JOIDESinstitutions, provides general oversight for ODP. The Planning Committee (PCOM), with itsadvisory structure, is made up of working scientists and provides scientific advice and detailedplanning. PCOM has a network of panels and working groups that screen drilling proposals,evaluate instrumentation and measurement techniques, and assess geophysical-survey dataand other safety and siting information. PCOM uses the recommendations of the panels andcommittees to select drilling targets, to specify the location and major scientific objectives ofeach two-month drilling segment or leg, and to provide the science operator with nominationsfor co-chief scientists.
Joint Oceanographic Institutions, Inc. (JOI), a nonprofit consortium of U.S. Oceanographicinstitutions, serves as the National Science Foundation^ prime contractor for ODP. JOI isresponsible for seeing that the scientific objectives, plans, and recommendations of theJOIDES committees are translated into scientific operations consistent with scientific adviceand budgetary constraints. JOI subcontracts the operations of the program to two universities:Texas A&M University and Lamont-Doherty Geological Observatory of Columbia Univer-sity. JOI is also responsible for managing the U.S. contribution to ODP.
Texas A&M University (TAMU) serves as science operator for ODP. In this capacity,TAMU is responsible for planning the specific ship operations, actual drilling schedules, andfinal scientific rosters, which are developed in close cooperation with PCOM and the relevant
panels. The science operator also ensures that adequate scientific analyses are performed onthe cores by maintaining the shipboard scientific laboratories and computers and by providinglogistical and technical support for shipboard scientific teams. Onshore, TAMU managesscientific activities after each leg, is curator for the cores, distributes samples, and coordinatesthe editing and publication of scientific results.
Lamont-Doherty Geological Observatory (LDGO) of Columbia University is responsiblefor the program's logging operation, including processing the data and providing assistanceto scientists for data analysis. The ODP Data Bank, a repository for geophysical data, is alsomanaged by LDGO.
Core samples from ODP and the previous Deep Sea Drilling Project are stored for futureinvestigation at three sites: ODP Pacific and Indian Ocean cores at TAMU, ODP and DSDPAtlantic and Antarctic cores at LDGO, and DSDP Pacific and Indian Ocean cores at theScripps Institution of Oceanography.
Scientific achievements of ODP include new information on early seafloor spreading andhow continents separate and the margins evolve. The oldest Pacific crust has been drilled andsampled. We have new insights into glacial cycles and the fluctuations of ocean currentsthroughout geological time. Many of the scientific goals can be met only with new technology;thus the program has focused on engineering as well as science. To date, ODP engineers havedemonstrated the capability to drill on bare rock at mid-ocean-ridge sites and have developedtechniques for drilling in high-temperature and corrosive regions typical of hydrothermal ventareas. A new diamond coring system promises better core recovery in difficult areas.
In addition, ODP is cooperating closely with other geological and geophysical programs;for example, in 1991 the first hole was drilled by ODP for emplacement of a seismometernear Hawaii for the Ocean Seismic Network. JOI is pleased to have been able to play afacilitating role in the Ocean Drilling Program and its cooperative activities, and we arelooking forward to many new results to come.

Preface
The Scientific Results volumes of the Proceedings of the Ocean Drilling Program containspecialty papers presenting the results of up to one and one-half years of research in variousaspects of scientific ocean drilling. I acknowledge with thanks the authors of the paperspublished in this volume, who thereby have enabled future investigators to gain ready accessto the results of their research.
Each of the papers submitted to a Scientific Results volume undergoes rigorous peer reviewby at least two specialists in the author's research field. A paper typically goes through oneor more revision cycles before being accepted for publication. Our goal is to maintain apeer-review system comparable to those of the most highly regarded journals in the geologicalsciences.
The Editorial Review Board for a Scientific Results volume is responsible for obtainingpeer reviews of papers submitted to the volume. This board usually is made up of the twoco-chief scientists for the cruise, the ODP staff scientist for the cruise, and one externalspecialist who is familiar with the geology of the area investigated. In addition, the ODP staffeditor assigned to the volume helps with any manuscripts that require special attention, suchas those by authors who need assistance with English expression.
Scientific Results volumes may also contain short reports consisting of good data that arenot ready for final interpretation. Papers in this category are segregated in a section in the backof the volume called Data Reports. Although no interpretation is permitted, these papersordinarily contain a section on methodology or procedures. Data Report papers are readcarefully by at least one specialist to make sure they are well organized, comprehensive, anddiscuss the techniques thoroughly.
In acknowledgment of the contributions made by this volume's Editorial Review Board,names of the individual Board members are listed on the title page. Reviewers of manuscriptsfor this volume, whose efforts are so essential to the success of the publication, are listed inthe front portion of the book, without attribution to a particular manuscript.
On behalf of the Ocean Drilling Program, I extend sincere appreciation to members of theEditorial Review Boards and to the reviewers for giving so generously of their time and effortsin ensuring that only papers of high scientific quality are published in the Proceedings.
