(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 palaeoclimatic record of CRP-3 is examined using major element analyses of bulk core samples of fine grained sediments (mu...
