...ROBERT D. JACOBI; DENNIS E. HAYES Abstract Several apparent sediment drifts of Tertiary age occur in the central northwest Pacific, and some form east-trending bands of thick sediment north and south of the axis of a major near-surface current, the Kuroshio Extension. The intervening area of thin...
