本論文之材料取自於國立中山大學校區內邊坡穩定監測所鑽井岩心，岩心所在地層屬高雄石灰岩下方之古亭坑層。研究中選取其中兩根W-2（N:2504008.088；E:174168.943，岩心總長60公尺）與S-4（N:2503968.458；E:174009.179，岩心總長55公尺）鑽探岩心。W-2及S-4之古亭坑泥岩長度分別為38.7公尺與21.8公尺。W-2及S-4分別每隔約10公分及30~40公分採一樣品，平均採取40 g左右之泥岩。
此研究為國內首次對沉積岩序進行有孔蟲穩定同位素分析，研究工作主要分二部分進行，一部分是利用浮游性有孔蟲來進行碳氧穩定同位素分析；另一部分則是以生物地層學的超微化石予以定年。
超微化石帶small Gephyrocapsa 亞帶之絕對年代分佈為1.242Ma~1.031Ma間，而根據岩心之穩定同位素所對比得到的年代模式為1.186 Ma ~1.065Ma，幾乎可以作為涵蓋small Gephyrocapsa 亞帶時期陸地高解析度的同位素地層。而本論文所推論之平均沉積速率約為31cm/ky；同時沉積速率呈現地層年代越年輕，沉積速率越低之趨勢，下部古亭坑層的沉積速率變化極大，可能深受濁流沉積之影響。此外頻譜分析圖譜顯示，氧同位素記錄有一較明顯之2.5ky左右週期。顯示在當時可能有2.5ky左右之週期營力影響著環境的變化。由冰期-間冰期δ13 C數據無法反應出冰期產生之高產力，推測應該有其他的機制影響著本研究區域的生產力變化，但在本研究中無法明顯指示出確切影響冰期-間冰期δ13 C數據變化之原因。

The samples for this study were adopted from the drilling cores for the slope-stability monitoring project inside the campus of NSYSU. Stratigraphically the strata belongs to the Gutingken Formation and is lain below the Kaohsiung Limestone. Two cores were selected for this research, one is W-2 (N: 2504008.088; E: 174168.943, 60m in length) and the other is S-4 (N: 2503968.458; E: 174009.179, 55m in length). The thickness of the Gutingken Mudstone in cores W2 and S4 is 38.7m and 21.8m, respectively. Each sample was obtained at every 10 cm interval for W2 and 30~40 cm for S4 with an average weight of 40 g.
This study mainly contains two parts: analyzing the planktonic foraminifera for their carbon and oxygen stable isotopic compositions and dating the downcore records by correlating with the nannobiostratigraphy. Particular is the stable isotopic compositions of planktonic foraminifera in these terrestrial sedimentary sequences which has not been done in Taiwan before.
Overall the mudstone analyzed in this study falls in the biostratigraphic range of small Gephyrocapsa Subchron, which spreads within 1.242 Ma~1.031 Ma. according to previous report. The age range is further constrained at about 1.186~1.065 Ma based on the oxygen isotope record and thus can be regarded as a high-resolution isotopic stratigraphy within the small Gephyrocapsa subchron. The average sedimentation rate inferred by the best age model from these cores is about 31cm/ky. It shows a progressive decrease in sedimentation rates: the younger the strata, the lower the sedimentation rate. On the contrary, the sedimentation rate varies dramatically at the lower part of the record. The turbidity current might be a potential factor responsible for the change. In addition, the spectral analysis of δ18O data presents a comparatively significant cycle of about 2.5ky through out the record. It might indicate a periodic forcing which influenced the environment during sediment depositation. The δ13C record obtained from this study fail to reflect the high productivity during the glacials. The mechanism that might affect the productivity in the area is not clear and still needs advanced research.
