Sedimentology on cores off the South Orkney Plateau ...
Grab samples and cores for sedimentological studies were retrieved along a N-S transect of the South Orkney Plateau margin. On the basis of morphology, the margin has been subdivided into shelf, upper continental slope, and a lower slope region cut by basins and ridges.Grain size, Sand component, an...
