Insights into the behaviour of the Pliocene East Antarctic ice sheet from provenance studies of marine sediments using radiogenic isotopoes
Direct evidence for the response of Earth’s largest continental ice mass, the East Antarctic ice sheet (EAIS), to climatic warmth is extremely limited. The primary aim of this thesis is to improve understanding of the behaviour of the EAIS during the warmer-than-present Pliocene Epoch (2.58 to 5.33...
