Stratigraphic units, table

When the major element chemistry for the various stratigraphic units are compared, no large differences are found (Table 4), The concentration of AI2O3 in the shales is less than what would be expected from a clay shale, which together with the SiC>2 con-... 

Different properties were introduced for each stratigraphic unit, according to Table 1. The...

Forty-two soil samples were taken for analysis from difierent soil units of six exposures. The primary grouping of the analytical data was made by the soil units distinguished in the field (Figure 3). Table II contains the analytical data expressed as elemental concentration means and standard deviations for five major elements and nine minor and trace elements for the five soil units. Complete data are available from the authors on request. In addition. Units II and III have been subdivided on stratigraphic and chemical grounds. Unit II consists of Ko-e and its associated Apb. Because Ko-e is discontinuous. Unit IF is the second soil unit in those sections where Ko-e is missing from the exposure. 

After the REE patterns have been established, it is possible to check the reliability of the soil unit designations. The results in Table IV suggest that there is quite reasonable agreement between the REE patterns and the soil horizon units. Only 2 samples out of 42 do not appear to fit the various clusters. These two samples were obtained from an exposure where the basal stratigraphic sequence was undecipherable. This table confirms the similarity of Units II, Ill(lower), IV, and the basal unit (Group B) noted in Table III, and the similarity of Units I and Ill(upper) (Group A) with IT.
