Growth age versus cumulative growth rate (left) and growth rate versus model age(right) in nodules from the Campbell Nodule Field, New Zealand. Extrapolated ages are based on measured 10Be/9Be ratios and the extrapolated 10Be/9Be ratio of the rim. Model ages are based on measured 10Be/9Be ratios and an assumed initial 10Be/9Be ratio. Growth ages (in m.y.) are based on the elapsed time from initiation of growth (i.e., core to rim).
