Hydrögraphically defined (Schott, 1935), the Arabian Sea roughly encompasses that part of the Indian Ocean which lies north of the equator and west of the Laccadive-Chagos Ridge. Its area of nearly 7,500,000 km comprises one-tenth of this ocean. Running diagonally across the Arabian Sea is a prominent subsea feature, the Carlsberg Ridge (Plate 1 ) which divides it into a northern and southern part. The six Leg 23 drill sites that were used to investigate the northern Arabian Sea (Sites 234 and 235 of Leg 24 were drilled in the southern half) have provided the first opportunity to study a significant part of the sedimentational history of this large area. Previous direct observations were limited in the time dimension by the depth of penetration of the piston core. Geographically, most of these observations were restricted to a scattering of control points, too few to draw any but gross generalizations regarding sediment distribution. Such generalizations can be seen on the maps of Lisitzin (1972), Fairbridge (redrawn by Spencer, E. W. after Schott, W., 1966) and Shepard (1963). More detailed work in portions of the northern Arabian Sea by Stackelberg (1972), Stewart et al. (1965), and Goldberg and Griffin (1970) obtained data for more refined studies. However, these studies provided only partial coverage either as regards the sum of the sediment components analyzed or of the area encompassed.
