The sediments recovered during Leg 138 provide a remarkable opportunity to improve the geological time scale of the late Neogene. We have developed new time scales in the following steps. First, we constructed age models on the basis of shipboard magnetostratigraphy and biostratigraphy, using the time scale of Berggren, Kent, and Flynn (1985). Second, we refined these age models using shipboard GRAPE density measurements to provide more accurate correlation points. Third, we calibrated a time scale for the past 6 m.y. by matching the high-frequency GRAPE density variations to the orbital insolation record of Berger and Loutre (1991); we also took into account d18O records, where they were available. Fourth, we generated a new seafloor anomaly time scale using our astronomical calibration of C3A.n (t) at 5.875 Ma and an age of 9.639 Ma for C5n.1n (t) that is based on a new radiometric calibration (Baksi, 1992). Fifth, we recalibrated the records older than 6 Ma to this new scale. Finally, we reconsidered the 6- to 10-Ma interval and found that this could also be partially tuned astronomically.
