Data from piston cores, DSDP drill sites, and seismic profiles in the Lesser Antilles intraoceanic island arc define eight lithofacies units: (I) a pelagic clay facies on the abyssal plain below the CCD (carbonate compensation depth); (II) a marly calcareous ooze facies on the forearc slope; (III) a calcareous ooze facies on isolated oceanic rises; (IV) a volcanic calcareous ooze facies on the broad, shallow arc platform; (V) a calcareous shell hash facies restricted to arc platform reefs; (VI) a calcareous volcanic silt facies with abundant pyroclastic turbidites in the backarc basin; (VII) a silty calcareous mud facies in backarc and forearc regions adjacent to continental sediment sources; and (VIII) a calcareous mud facies with terrigenous turbidites and contourites on the abyssal plain adjacent to continental sediment sources. The primary sources of sediment in the Lesser Antilles region include calcareous pelagic material, volcanogenic sediment from the island arc, and terrigenous sediment from South America. Factors governing the distribution of this sediment include: the level of the CCD, prevailing wind and ocean current patterns, bathymetry, distance from volcanogenic and terrigenous sediment sources, and fluctuations in sea level. A depositional model developed for the Lesser Antilles region serves as a type model for intraoceanic island arcs with large lateral terrigenous sediment influxes.
