Abundance of ostracoda in sediment cores CRP-1 and CRP-2
Sparse, poorly preserved late Oligocene (3 species) and early Miocene (4 species) ostracod faunas have been recovered from CRP-2A, while relatively more abundant Quaternary... -
Chemical analysis of various geological samples from Northern Victoria Land, ...
This paper reports the results of a preliminary palaeomagnetic investigation of the Admiralty Intrusives complex of northern Victoria Land, Antarctica. The samples were... -
Clay mineralogy of Cape Roberts sediment cores
The clay mineral assemblages of the ca. 1600 m thick Cenozoic sedimentary succession recovered at the CRP-1, CRP-2/2A and CRP-3 drill sites off Cape Roberts on the McMurdo Sound... -
Carbon, nitrogen and sulphur of sediment core CRP-1 (Table 1)
Sediments and rocks recovered in CRP-1 coring operations contain relatively little organic matter (average 0.4% TOC) and very small amounts of solvent-soluble organic matter (... -

Grain size analysis on core plugs of sediment core CRP-1 (Table 1, 2)
Twenty four core samples from CRP-1, seven from Quaternary strata (20-43.55 meters below sea floor or mbsf) and seventeen from early Miocene strata (43.55 to 147.69 mbsf), have... -
Petrophysical measurements on core plug samples of sediment core CRP-1 (Table 1)
This paper reports measurements of velocity vs pressure and of bulk density, porosity, matrix density, and magnetic susceptibility in 18 core plugs from CRP-1. Comparison of our... -
Clay mineralogy of sediment core CRP-1
Clay mineral assemblages in lower Miocene and Quaternary sediments recovered at the CRP-1 drillsite, McMurdo Sound shelf, Antarctica, were analysed in order to reconstruct... -

Porosity and sound velocity measured in sediment core CIROS-1
The CIROS-1 drillhole, which in 1986 reached a depth of 700 m below the seafloor, is still the only deep hole that can provide information on the velocity structure of the upper... -
Analytical results of 19 amino acid analyses from Unit 3.1 of sediment core C...
Amino acid-based geochronological analyses were carried out on fossil mollusc shell and foraminifera from Unit 3.1, Cape Roberts Project core CRP-1. Ratios of D-alloIsoleucine... -
Selected major elements and trace elements of ferrar dolerite clasts from sed...
One of the objectives of the Cape Roberts Project is to study the tectonic history of the western Ross Sea region. Timing of the uplift of the Transantarctic Mountains, which... -
Abundance of terrestrial palynomorphs of sediment core CRP-1
Sparse pollen and spores from the lower Miocene section of CRP-1 derive from at least three sources. A low-diversity but persitent angiosperm-moss-liverwort assemblage may... -
Rare earth element content of the clay fraction from sediment core CRP-1 (Tab...
TEM observations on smectites and REE analyses on the clay minerals of the sediments of CRP-1 core were carried out to investigate their origin and the source rocks from which... -
(Table 1) Detrital modes for sand grains in sediment core CRP-1
Detrital modes for the sand-size fraction in 24 samples from the CRP-1 drillcore are described. Most samples are largely composed of quartzo-feldspathic detritus sourced... -
Petrographical classification and mineral assemblage of basement clasts from ...
Petrographical and mineral chemistry data are described for the mist representative basement lithologies occurring as clasts (pebble grain-size class) from the CRP-1 drillhole.... -
Carbonate content of sediment core CRP-1 (Table 1)
Determinations of total carbonate content yield additional information, in the context of integrated investigations, thus enabling or enhancing the interpretation and... -
Semiquantitative occurence of various minerals in sediment core CRP-2A
The mineralogy of the lower Oligocene to Quaternary sediments of core CRP-2/2A drilled on the continental shelf of McMurdo Sound in Ross Sea, Antarctica, was examined by the... -
Clay and smectite analysis of sediment core CRP-2A
Sediments of the CRP-2/2A drill core from the continental shelf of McMurdo Sound in Ross Sea, Pacific sector of the Southern Ocean, have been investigated for their clay mineral... -
Occurence of macrofossils in the carbonate-rich unit of sediment core CRP-1 (...
Macrofossils are a significant component of biogenic carbonate sediments in the Quaternary section of the CRP-1 drillhole, Cape Roberts, Victoria Land Basin. The middle...
