Book Synopsis Geochemical and Sedimentological Analysis of Marine Sediments from ODP Site 696 and Implications for the Onset of Antarctic Glaciation by : Allison Paige Lepp
Download or read book Geochemical and Sedimentological Analysis of Marine Sediments from ODP Site 696 and Implications for the Onset of Antarctic Glaciation written by Allison Paige Lepp and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Eocene-Oligocene Transition (EOT) approximately 34 million years ago (Ma) marks the shift from the warm greenhouse conditions of the Eocene to today’s icehouse, and was accompanied by the establishment of the East and West Antarctic Ice Sheets. Details surrounding the timing, magnitude, and regional expansion of glaciation are poorly constrained primarily due to low core recovery and lack of reliable age models, and therefore warrant continued investigation. A recently updated age model applied to Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) Site 696, located in the northwest sector of the Weddell Sea, indicates Core 55R represents a high-recovery succession encompassing the EOT. This project presents a high-resolution, multimethod analysis of this sediment core. Laser particle size analysis was performed throughout the core, and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry and optical emission spectrometry are used to quantify major, trace, and rare earth elemental concentrations on samples with >80% mud. Paleoclimate proxies are calculated to characterize the dominant weathering regime and degree of glacial influence on sediment. Results indicate a cool, dry climate and sediment with a strong glacial signature, as evidenced by low chemical index of alteration (CIA) values and significant contribution of glacial rock flour. Trace and REE ratios do not suggest major changes in source material, and felsic versus mafic plots indicate 55R sediment is felsic to intermediate in composition. Sediment remains well sorted throughout, and therefore elemental enrichments are likely related to grain-size partitioning. Results of this study have implications for the investigation into continental glacial history of Antarctic through the EOT; 55R sediments reflect a similar climate to shelf sediments retrieved from Prydz Bay and Wilkes Land Margins and are consistent with significant terrestrial cooling across East Antarctica during the late Eocene. Studies from West Antarctica, however, suggest a later onset with less glacial stability. Similar high-resolution studies are thusly needed to further improve our understanding of Antarctic ice dynamics in response to climate perturbations.

This book was released on 2016 with total page 55 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This study tested and assessed several methods for identifying and describing physical and chemical characteristics of nearshore sediments in East Antarctica. The study emphasised non-destructive techniques that can be used with small volumes of sample. There were three key aims: 1. Provide information about analytical techniques that are non-destructive and can be used on small-volume samples, 2. Apply these techniques to a set of samples where sufficient material is available and compare the results with the outcomes of traditional geochemical techniques, and, 3. Gain additional information on sedimentary processes in the nearshore environment in East Antarctica. Sediment samples from the Antarctic region are especially difficult to collect because of large logistical requirements and are thus highly valuable." -- online abstract.

Book Synopsis Antarctic Earth Science by : R. L. Oliver
Download or read book Antarctic Earth Science written by R. L. Oliver and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1983 with total page 722 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fourth international symposium on Antarctic Earth Sciences took place in Adelaide, South Australia during the week 16-20 August 1982. This volume contains a record of the centenary activities celebrating Sir Douglas Mawson and the one hundred and seventy-four papers that were presented by delegates for discussion over the five days. Sir Douglas Mawson was part of the first team to reach the magnetic South Pole, a leading geologist and scientific figure during the heroic age of of antarctic exploration. The papers presented during the symposium were divided into fifteen categories covering east and west Antarctica, marine, land and glacial geology, plate tectonics, islands, peninsulas, climatic change and Precambrian and Cenozoic era activity. The two hundred persons from sixteen countries who attended the symposium brought together a wide range of the most current expertise and research to share, of which this volume provides a record.

Book Synopsis Antarctic Science by : Gotthilf Hempel
Download or read book Antarctic Science written by Gotthilf Hempel and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Public awareness of the importance of Antarctic research, particularly in relation to global problems, has increased. The book spans a broad spectrum of Antarctic science from the "ozone hole" to microbiology to the sea ice. The main focus is on the role of Antarctica and the Southern Ocean in the world climate system, e.g. the formation of sea ice and its relevance to ocean circulation, the biological pump in relation to CO2 release. The past climate history is revealed by the analysis of ice cores and sediments. Studies of plate tectonics and fossil records reach further back in earth history. Key words in the biological chapters are krill and the rich Antarctic benthos. Finally, the potential conflict between conservationists, researchers and tourists is discussed.
Book Synopsis The Terrors of Ice and Darkness by : Christoph Ransmayr
Download or read book The Terrors of Ice and Darkness written by Christoph Ransmayr and published by Grove Press. This book was released on 1991 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A brilliant interweaving of journeys and voyages--geographical, historical, psychological--The Terrors of Ice and Darkness is the riveting account of a narrator obsessed with a certain Josef Mazzini, a young Italian "lost in the arctic winter of 1981" who is himself obsessed with the Imperial Austro-Hungarian North Pole Expedition of 1873: "At first it was nothing more than a game to try to reduce the circumstances of his disappearance to some sort of explanation, any explanation. But every clue yielded a new unanswered question. Quite involuntarily I found myself taking one step after the other. . . . Cumulus clouds mirrored in a shop window became calving glaciers, patches of old snow in city parks became great floes of ice. The Arctic Ocean lay at my window. Much the same thing must have happened to Mazzini." Painstakingly retracing Mazzini's steps, the narrator simultaneously reconstructs the dramatic and fantastic story of the nineteenth-century journey, using actual letters and diaries of the members of that harrowing expedition. These documents--sometimes surprisingly poetic and moving--combine in the narrator's imagination to evoke as never before the awful beauty of the world's farthest northern reaches. In a novel as crystalline as the polar ice, as penetrating as the arctic cold, Christopher Ransmayr spins an adventure tale both spellbinding and paradoxical in its subversive undermining of conventional notions of heroism and exploration.
