Last glacial maximum sediment record of the southern Weddell Sea shelf

Abstract: The history of grounded ice-sheet extent on the southern Weddell Sea shelf during the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) and the timing of post-LGM ice-sheet retreat are...

Colour reflectance and descriptions of seven sediment cores from the Weddell Sea

The timing of the last maximum extent of the Antarctic ice sheets relative to those in the Northern Hemisphere remains poorly understood. We develop a chronology for the Weddell...

Particle fluxes and composition at two mooring sites in the Polar Front Region

Particle fluxes and composition were examined over 5 years at two mooring sites in the Polar Front Region (site PF: 50°09.S, 5°50.E) and in the marginal winter sea-ice zone...

Paleomagnetic measurements of 10 sediment profiles from the Antarctic contine...

Die im Rahmen des zweijährigen Forschungsprojekts über paläomagnetisch-sedimentologische Analysen sedimentärer Zyklen in der Weddell See und ihre stratigraphische Interpretation...

Sedimentology at the continental margin of the southern Weddell Sea

During four expeditions with RV "Polarstern" at the continental margin of the southern Weddell Sea, profiling and geological sampling were carried out. A detailed bathymetric...

Age models, isotopes, and calcium carbonate of two sediment cores from the So...

We used benthic foraminiferal assemblages and the stable carbon isotopic composition of benthic foraminiferal tests to interpret glacial-to-interglacial contrasts in two gravity...

Opal and barium records of six sediment cores for the last 400 ka

Records of biogenic opal and barium were measured in sediment cores at the Antarctic continental margin in the area of the Weddell, Lazarev and Cosmonaut seas. These records...

Organic carbon and opal in deep sea sediments of the southern and eastern Wed...

During the ANT V14 (1986187) and ANT V113 (1987188) cruises of R.V. Polarstern sedirnents from the eastern, southern and central Weddell Sea were sarnpled with a boxcorer andlor...

Magnetic susceptibility and ice-rafted debris in surface sediments of the Atl...

Spatial distribution of magnetic susceptibility and the gravel fraction in surface sediments in the Atlantic sector of the Southern Ocean were investigated to reconstruct source...

Sedimentological investigations and age model on profile PS58/254

Modern global warming is likely to cause future melting of Earth's polar ice sheets that may result in dramatic sea-level rise. A possible collapse of the West Antarctic Ice...

Sedimentology and age models of cores from the Antarctic continental margin i...

To reveal the late Quaternary paleoenvironmental changes at the Antarctic continental margin, we test a lithostratigraphy, adjusted to a stable isotope record from the eastern...

Sedimentological and paleomagnetic investigations on two gravity cores and OD...

Oligocene to Quaternary sediments were recovered from the Antarctic continental margin in the eastern Weddell Sea during ODP Leg 113 and Polarstern expedition ANT-VI. Clay...

Distribution of benthic foraminifera with related sedimentological hydrograph...

Surface sediment samples taken with a vented box corer from the eastern Weddell Sea on four profiles perpendicular to the continental margin have been investigated for their...
