Résumé : The stratigraphic subdivision of the Quaternary deep-sea record is not only of significance to stratigraphers but also to those who seek to understand processes that are recorded in these sediments : for example, climatic change and its causes, ocean chemistry and its variation through time, the phenomena of faunal and floral evolution and extinction, and many others.
