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... -
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... -
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... -
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... -
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... -
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... -
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 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... -
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... -
Preliminary results and documentation of sediment cores CRP2 and CRP-2A from ...
The site for CRP-2, 14 km east of Cape Roberts (77.006°S; 163.719°E), was selected to overlap the early Miocene strata cored in nearby CRP-1, and to sample deeper into the... -
Geochemistry of minerals in CRP sediment cores from the Ross Sea, Antarctica
Sixty-four volcanic chists, sandstones and tephras between 5.95 and 618.19 meters below sea floor (mbsf) in the Cape Roberts Project cores 2 and 2A cores (CRP-2/2A) were... -
