    Notes: Abstract Analysis of seven piston cores obtained from three sites in Lake Biwa provide a detailed stratigraphy of the lake sediments for the last 30 kyrs. Description of lithology and measurement of magnetic susceptibility reveal occurrence of volcanic ashes at ten horizons, that were visually observed or microscopically found from clayey sediments. Most ash layers are observed in multiple cores from the three sites and also in earlier cores, establishing correlation and age assignment of the core sediments. This result demonstrates usefulness of magnetic susceptibility data in finding dispersed volcanic ashes. The age-depth curves deduced from published tephra ages show that significant difference in sedimentation rates occurs in Lake Biwa. The central part of the depression is characterized by homogeneous sediments deposited with a high sedimentation rate. The 250-m-thick lacustrine clay in this sub-basin has great potential for high-resolution study of the past environment and paleomagnetism for the last 0.5 Myr.

    Description: We present the magnetostratigraphic data for Sites 794, 795, 797, 798, and 799 in the Japan Sea. APC cores from these sites record the polarity sequence for the Pliocene-Pleistocene period. The intensity of the magnetization decreases with depth by more than an order of magnitude, and the low intensity samples tend to give scattered directional data. The cause of these phenomena is examined based on the correlation of the intensity with the bulk magnetic susceptibility.
