7.) Collection from ODP Leg 114 (Islas Orcadas Rise, Subantarctic South Atlantic), Sites 702A,B
 
Study collection of washed residues (subsplits of sieve fractions larger than 150 micrometers in glass vials). The samples were collected from 135 stratigraphic levels and cover an age range from the Early Eocene through Late Miocene, with a large Hiatus in the upper portion of the section. No publication was delivered or was found about results from this collection.
Information on sediments, cores, ages, etc can, however, be taken from the respective chapters in the Proceedings of the ODP, Initial and Scientific reports.

8.) Collection from ODP Leg 115 (Mascarene Plateau, Indian Ocean), Sites 707A and C, and 711A
 
Study collection of washed residues (fractions smaller than 63 micrometers in plastic containers, and residues larger than 63 micrometers in glass vials) and remaining unprocessed sediment (bulk) samples from ODP Sites 707A and C, and 711A. Volumes of unprocessed materials is about 0.5-1 cm3.
 
The samples were collected across the Late Eocene through Early Oligocene, and were used for stable isotop analyses on foraminifers in the years from 1994 to 1995. No publication is available about results from these studies. Information on sediments, cores, ages, etc can be taken from the respective chapters in the Proceedings of the ODP, Initial and Scientific reports.
 
Site 707A: In total 73 unprocessed samples in plastic bags (115-707A-20X-1,27-29cm through 707A-23X-6, 116-118cm). Of these there are washed residues (<63µm and > 63 µm) from 11 samples.
 
Site 707C: 6 unprocessed samples in plastic bags (115-707C-6R-1,46-48cm through 707C-6R-3, 102-104cm).
 
Site 711A: 126 unprocessed samples (711A-19X-6,105-107cm through 711A-12X-2, 63-65cm).
