Lake Bosumtwi Drilling Project: Shock Metamorphism in Rocks from Core
General context: Shock barometry via petrographic analysis helps to understand cratering mechanics, especially mass movements in the central uplift, including its collapse in the late stage of cratering. Shock pressures recorded in lithologies of the central uplift may exceed 45 GPa, e.g., in the Vorotilovo core drilled into the center of the Puchezh-Katunki structure [1]. In other craters, sho...
متن کاملRecent climate tendencies on an East Antarctic ice shelf inferred from a shallow firn core network
Nearly three decades of stable isotope ratios and surface mass balance (SMB) data from eight shallow firn cores retrieved at Fimbul Ice Shelf, East Antarctica, in the Austral summers 2009-2011 have been investigated. An additional longer core drilled in 2000/2001 extends the series back to the early eighteenth century. Isotope ratios and SMB from the stacked record of all cores were also relate...
متن کاملDetermination of accumulation rates from a shallow firn core of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet
In recent decades the West Antarctic Ice Sheet has experienced warming and glacial retreat. Despite receiving growing attention, knowledge of glacial dynamics in this region remains limited. Snow accumulation data is sparse and fails to capture true spatial variability. A shallow firn core, drilled at the triple ice divide between Pine Island Glacier, Institute Ice Stream, and Rutford Ice Strea...

متن کاملKey Antarctic mission goes ahead
As the Antarctic summer arrives an international team of researchers is set to embark on a mission to study two vast subglacial basins in eastern Antarctica that are both little studied but of potentially huge importance for sea levels under climate change. The polar regions are expected to warm significantly as a result of human-induced climate change because of positive feedback associated wi...
