Iodp Expedition 305: Ocean Core Complex Formation, Atlantis Massif Site U1309 Summary
ثبت نشده
چکیده
SCIENCE SUMMARY Site U1309 (Prospectus Site AMFW-01A) is located on the central dome of Atlantis Massif, 15 km west of the median valley axis of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, where the seafloor coincides with a corrugated detachment fault surface. Site U1309 comprises eight holes drilled within 2 km of one another and along a spreading-parallel corridor (see Expedition 304 Site U1309 Site Summary). Hole U1309D penetrates a dominantly gabbroic crustal section, providing core that documents the interplay between magmatism, deformation, and alteration prior to, during, and subsequent to, a period of footwall displacement and denudation associated with detachment faulting.

Integrated Ocean Drilling Program (IODP) Expedition 333 returned to two sites drilled during IODP Expedition 322 on the ocean side of the Nankai Trough to pursue the characterization of the inputs to the Nankai subduction and seismogenic zone, as part of the Nankai Trough Seismogenic Experiment (NanTroSEIZE) multi-expedition project. Site C0011 is located at the seaward edge of the trench and S...
متن کاملInternational Ocean Discovery Program Expedition 364 Scientific Prospectus
The Chicxulub impact crater in Mexico is unique. It is the only known terrestrial impact structure that has been directly linked to a mass extinction event and the only terrestrial impact with a global ejecta layer. Of the three largest impact structures on Earth, Chicxulub is the best preserved. Chicxulub is also the only known terrestrial impact structure with an intact, unequivocal topograph...

Expedition 309, “Superfast Spreading Rate Crust 2,” successfully deepened Hole 1256D (6.736°N, 91.934°W) by 503 m to a total depth of 1255.1 meters below seafloor (mbsf) or 1005.1 meters subbasement. The average rate of core recovery for the expedition was 36%. Much higher rates of recovery were experienced in the lowermost section of the hole (~70% average below 1200 mbsf). At the end of Exped...
