The Lake El’gygytgyn Scientific Drilling Project – Conquering Arctic Challenges through Continental Drilling
Between October 2008 and May 2009, the International Continental Scientific Drilling Program (ICDP) co-sponsored a campaign at Lake El ́gygytgyn, located in a 3.6-Ma-old meteorite impact crater in northeastern Siberia. Drilling targets included three holes in the center of the 170-m-deep lake, utilizing the lake ice cover as a drilling platform, plus one hole close to the shore in the western la...
متن کاملRickets in Healthy Adolescents in Van, the Eastern of Turkey
Aim: To investigate the ratio of rickets and vitamin D deficiency in healthy adolescents at Van region. Method: Totally 126 cases were included in this study. All cases were evaluated for the presence of rickets symptoms, daily sun exposure, and vitamin usage, covering and eating habit. Diagnosis of rickets was made based on biochemical findings.

متن کاملLake 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 کاملSulfate reduction controlled by organic matter availability in deep sediment cores from the saline, alkaline Lake Van (Eastern Anatolia, Turkey)
As part of the International Continental Drilling Program deep lake drilling project PaleoVan, we investigated sulfate reduction (SR) in deep sediment cores of the saline, alkaline (salinity 21.4‰, alkalinity 155 m mEq(-1), pH 9.81) Lake Van, Turkey. The cores were retrieved in the Northern Basin (NB) and at Ahlat Ridge (AR) and reached a maximum depth of 220 m. Additionally, 65-75 cm long grav...
متن کاملThe Lake Petén Itzá Scientifi c Drilling Project
Polar ice cores provide us with high-resolution records of past climate change at high latitudes on both glacial-to-interglacial and millennial timescales. Paleoclimatologists and climate modelers have focused increasingly on the tropics, however, as a potentially important driver of global climate change because of the region’s role in controlling the Earth’s energy budget and in regulating th...
