Oxygen isotopic composition of interstitial waters from ODP Leg 207 sites

We determined oxygen isotopic compositions of interstitial water (IW) recovered during Ocean Drilling Program Leg 207. Five sites were cored (3200- to 1900-m water depth) on Demerara Rise off Suriname, South America, recovering a Cenomanian-Paleogene sedimentary sequence consisting of black shales and chalks. A total of 115 IW oxygen isotopic analyses are presented.
