CAR-MON2 Piston core collected around Montserrat during the Caraval cruise (2002). Age/depth plot of core CAR-MON 2 using ages determined from the stable isotope stratigraphy. Major tephra layers in the core are indicated: grey lines represent peaks of abundance of glass shards (PL1-2 to PL6-2) corresponding to open-vent eruptions and black lines represent peaks of abundance of dense and microcrystallised particles (D1-2 to D9-2) corresponding to dome-forming eruptions. Peaks of abundance are correlated with some ages. Grey areas in the log represent the extent of the tephra deposits on both sides of some peaks of abundance. The two distinctive layers of pteropods concentration are noted. The CAR-MON2 is located at the same place than the CARI-01C proposed drilling site. https://ssdb.iodp.org/secureGetObj.php?id=105837
