Bivalve shells from the CRP-l drillhole, Cape Roberts (Victoria Land Basin), have been analysed for their stable isotope composition to obtain information on Antarctic coastal palaeoceanography during the middle Pleistocene and early Miocene. Shells from a middle Pleistocene carbonate-rich unit (lit...
