Current Deposits and Tectonism in the Bahamas Foreland: Implications for Gulf Stream Circulation

Eberli PI将使用现有地震测线网格和最近的ODP年代地层数据来评估巴哈马前陆航道构造变形和建筑的时间和风格。 他将绘制漂流沉积物和水流引起的侵蚀特征的地图，将其与其他加勒比构造事件以及北大西洋深水的发展和新生代气候变化进行比较。 这项研究将有助于记录佛罗里达海流的沉积历史。

EberliThe PI will use a grid of existing seismic lines and recent ODP chronostratigraphic data to assess the timing and style of tectonic deformation and architecture of the seaways in the Bahamian Foreland. He will map drift deposits and erosional features caused by currents, compare the timing with other Caribbean tectonic events, and with development of North Atlantic Deep water and climate changes of the Cenozoic. The study will help document the depositional history of the Florida Current.
