Purpose
Abstract The cruise M35-2 was aimed at the Sargasso Sea as a potentially unbiased archive of global climatic change in the younger Pleistocene. Piston cores and multicorer cores were taken from Nares Abyssal Plain, Nares Fracture Valley, and the slope of the Bermuda Rise. Though multibeam data has been recorded during this cruise, the responsible party has provided no acquisition informations.
