Workshop - Antarctic Stratigraphic Drilling - Cape Roberts Project

这项奖励是为了支持一个研讨会，该研讨会旨在探索美国调查人员通过美国南极计划参与“罗伯茨角项目”的可能性，该项目是一个以罗斯海西南部为目标地点的地层钻探项目。该项目在作为国际讲习班和非正式会议与其他专业科学会议一起举行的会议过程中得到发展和发展。该项目的其他潜在参与者包括新西兰、意大利、德国和日本。钻探的科学目标包括罗斯海古生物地理和冰川历史中的几个问题以及罗斯海地区构造史中的问题。研讨会将于1993年春季在俄亥俄哥伦布市俄亥俄州立大学伯德极地研究中心举行。

This award is to support a workshop designed to explore the potential participation of U.S. investigators, through the U.S. Antarctic Program, in the "Cape Roberts Project," a stratigraphic drilling project with target sites in the southwestern Ross Sea. This project has developed and evolved through the course of meetings held both as international workshops and as less formal meetings in conjunction with other professional scientific meetings. Other potential participants in this project are New Zealand, Italy, Germany, and Japan. Scientific objectives for drilling include several problems in the paleobiogeography and glacial history of the Ross Sea and problems in the tectonic history of the Ross Sea region. The workshop will be held at the Byrd Polar Research Center at The Ohio State University, Columbus, Ohio, during spring of 1993.
