(Table 1) Major and trace elements of sediment core CRP-3
The CRP-3 core, drilled in western McMurdo Sound in October and November 1999, penetrated 823 m of lower Oligocene (to possibly upper Eocene) glacially influenced sediments. The... -
(Table 2) Apatite fission track results from sediment core CRP-3
The Cape Roberts drillhole 3 (CRP-3) on the western edge of the Victoria Land Basin, Antarctica cored through a highly altered igneous intrusion intruded into Paleozoic... -
(Table 1) Average composition of smectites of sediment core CRP-3
The aim of this work is to evaluate the origin of smectites in sediments of CRP-3 core (Victoria Land Basin, Antarctica), through TEM observations and microanalyses on smectite... -
(Table 1) Detrital modes for sand grains in sediment core CRP-3
Detrital modes determined on 68 sandstone samples from CRP-3 drillcore indicate a continuation of the dynamic history of uplift-related erosion and unroofing previously... -

CRP-3 cores were not orientated with respect to North during coring operations. However, borehole televiewer (BHTV) logging did obtain azimuthally orientated images of the... -
(Table 1) Strontium isotope data for marine carbonates of sediment core CRP-3
Strontium isotope stratigraphy was used to date 5 discrete horizons within the CRP-3 drillhole. A single in situ modiolid bivalve fragment at 10.88 mbsf gives an age of 30.9... -

Sparse low diversity early Oligocene spore-pollen assemblages above c. 410 mbsf (meters blow sea floor) in CRP-3 are dominated by Nothofagus pollen, and are very similar in... -
(Table 1) Distribution and numerical abundance of foraminifera of sediment co...
A foraminiferal fauna comprising c. 33 genera and c. 53 species was recovered from a suite of 156 Lower Oligocene sediment samples, mostly muddy sandstone and siltstone,... -
(Appendix 1) Carbonate content in relation to sediment type described for sed...
Determinations of total carbonate contents in the CRP-3 core yield additional information and knowledge, in the context of integrated investigations, thus enabling or enhancing... -
(Table 1) Geochemical analysis on sediment core CRP-3
Sediments and rocks recovered in CRP-3 coring operations contain minute amounts of organic matter (average 0.3% TOC). TOC contents and C:N ratios are zoned systematically: those... -
Clay and smectite content in sediment core CRP-3
The Cenozoic sediments of the CRP-3 drill core from the continental shelf of McMurdo Sound in Ross Sea, Pacific sector of the Southern Ocean, have been investigated for their...
