 Methodology

 PI note:   Zeros reflect concentrations or Mole% values that are 
            below detection levels.  Negative depth_core values 
            indicate the flocculent material just above the top
            of the core.


 Parameter    Description                                Units
 
 lat_n        nominal latitude, minus equals South       degrees
