About This Form

This form enables the retrieval of subsets of the stratigraphic splice data stored in the ocean drilling database. This data derives from the downhole depth-shifting and correlation of multiple core and logging datasets. The goal is to achieve a consistent and complete depth schema against which data from a site may be plotted for further comparison and analysis.

Splicer and Sagan are the tools used to depth-shift and correlate the input datasets. A custom tool, SplicerIntegrator, is used to record the affine and splice lookup tables in the central database.

Specify only those fields on which you wish to limit your query. For example, if you wanted to see information for one specific leg, fill in only the leg field and leave the remaining fields unchanged.

The output format list chooses between the data presentation formats shown below.

Interval Listing:

Leg	Site	H	MCD Top	MCD Bot
172	1054	B	  0.150	  5.040
172	1054	C	  5.040	 12.540
172	1054	B	 12.540	 17.490
172	1054	B	 21.090	 25.990
172	1054	C	 25.990	 31.990

Ideally the splice intervals provide a fully continuous and consistent downhole depth schema. Note that in practice this is often not the case due However, in practice
