The lithological-facies zoning of the Neo- and Eopleistocene sediments of the Caribbean Sea has been described for the first time based on deep-sea drilling data. Сorresponding maps and isopach schemes were processed using A.B. Ronov’s volumetric method to calculate the quantitative parameters of sedimentation for the distinguished types of Pleistocene sediments. It was revealed that the role of carbonate sediments increased from the east westward. The accumulation of lithogenic and carbonate planktic sediments was more intense in the Neopleistocene than in the Eopleistocene, which was related to the neotectonic orogeny on the Lesser Antilles.

加勒比海的更新世沉积物

基于深海钻探数据，首次描述了加勒比海新新世和始新世沉积的岩相区带。使用AB Ronov的体积法处理了相应的地图和等值线方案，以计算出更新世沉积物的不同类型的沉积物定量参数。据揭示，碳酸盐沉积物的作用从东西向西开始增加。新世新世比新世新世的岩性和碳酸盐板状沉积物堆积更为强烈，这与小安的列斯群岛的新构造造山运动有关。
