(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... -
Distribution of foraminifera, pre-Pliocene foraminifera and macrofossil debri...
The stratigraphic distribution, assemblage content, paleoecology and age of foraminifera recovered in fourteen of sixteen samples from the 5.63 m thick CRP-2 (Lithostratigraphic... -
Range chart of calcareous nannofossils in sediment core CRP-2A (Table 1)
Rare calcareous nannofossils from the Cape Roberts Project drillhole CRP-2A indicate that this area was episodically invaded by marginal oceanic surface waters during the late... -
Prominent deformation features and interpretation of sediment core CRP-2/2A (...
Sediment deformation features in CRP-2/2A were described during normal logging procedures and from core-scan images. In this paper the origin of soft-sediment folding, contorted... -
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... -
Element abundances, loss on ignition, total analyzed abundances, CIA values, ...
The CRP-2/2A core, drilled in western McMurdo Sound in October and November 1998, penetrated 624 m of Quaternary. Pliocene, lower Miocene, and Oligocene glacigenic sediments.... -
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... -
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... -
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... -
Geochemistry on sediment core CRP-1 (Table 1)
The CRP-1 core penetrated 148 m of Quaternary and lower Miocene glacigenic sediments. This material complements the Eocene trhough Miocene strata that was cored previously at... -
Mineral assemblage of basement clasts of sediment core CRP-1
Heavy minerals from the lower Miocene and Quaternary sediments of the CRP-1 drillcore have been investigated in order to characterise the mineralogical composition of the... -
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... -
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... -
