The location of the Côte d'Ivoire-Ghana Transform Margin, within an equatorial region and located between two different oceanic basins (Central and South Atlantic) of different ages, also provided paleoceanographic potential for Leg 159. The marine geological and geophysical surveys briefly presented above, and with which Leg 159 was planned, have already provided noteworthy data making this segment of transform margin a well-investigated example of this type. It is anticipated that continuous coring and logging at all selected Leg 159 sites will answer many of the questions still in discussion and open new trends of investigation.
