Core derived downhole logs for holes CRP-2 and CRP-2A
In the northern McMurdo Sound (Ross Sea, Antarctica), the CRP-2/2A drillhole targeted the western margin of the Victoria Land Basin to investigate Neogene to Palaeogene climatic... -
Temperature and resistivity profile of drill hole CRP-2A
In the northern part of McMurdo Sound (Ross Sea, Antarctica), drillhole CRP-2/2A targeted he western margin of the Victoria Land basin to investigate Neogene to Palaeogene... -
Carbon and nitrogen of sediment core CRP-2A (Table 1)
Sediments and rocks recovered in CRP-2/2A coring operations contain relatively little organic matter (average TOC=0.28%) and very small amounts of solvent-soluble organic... -
Geochemistry on smectites in sediment cores CRP-1 and CRP-2 from the Ross Sea...
TEM (transmission electron microscopy) observations and microanalyses on smectite microparticles in the sediments of the CRP-2A core were carried out to determine their origin... -
Distribution of the main heavy minerals identified in sediment core CRP-2/2A
Heavy minerals from the lower Oligocene to Quaternary sediments of the CRP-2/2A drill core have been analysed in order to characterize the mineralogical composition of the... -
Average dip directions from intervals of dipmeter log in drill hole CRP-2A
Bedding dips in the CRP-2A drillhole were determined in two ways (1) analysis of a dipmeter log, and (2) identification of bed boundaries on digital images of the outer core... -
Major and trace element concentrations of sediment core CRP-2/2A (Table 1,2)
Bulk chemistry (major and trace elements) of sand-sized samples from the CRP-2/2A drillhole provides evidence for a multicomponent provenance with changes in the component... -
Sample intervals and carbonate content of sediment core CRP-2/2A (Table 1)
Determinations of total carbonate contents on CRP-2/2A cores yield additional information and knowledge, thus enabling or enhancing the interpretation and characterization of... -

Sparse terrestrial palynomorphs (spores and pollen) were recovered from glacigene Lower Miocene and Oligocene core samples from the Cape Roberts Project (CRP) drillhole... -
Environmental analysis on sediment core CRP-2 from the Ross Sea, Antarctica
Cape Roberts Project drill core 2/2A was obtained from Roberts Ridge, a sea-floor high located at 77° S, 16 km offshore from Cape Roberts in western McMurdo Sound, Antarctica.... -

Physical properties of sediment core CRP-2A
In this paper the relationship between whole-core compressional wave velocities and gamma-ray attenuation porosities of sediments cored at CRP-2/2A is examined, and compared...
