0520939AndersonThis planning visit award will support Dr. Ken B. Anderson and Scott E. Ishman, Southern Illinois University at Carbondale, to meet with counterparts, Prof. Sonia Helle and Prof. Guillermo Alfaro at the Universidad de Concepcion, on a proposed project to employ an innovative approach to investigating Neogene climate change, combining micropaleontological investigations of marine sediments with organic geochemical analyses of terrestrial sediments. This study area is uniquely suited for this investigation due to the presence of interleaved marine and organic terrestrial sediments arising from the opening of the Drake Passage (between Cape Horn and Antarctica), spanning the time period over which the region is believed to have undergone major climatic changes.Professors Helle and Alfaro have extensive experience with and knowledge of thecoal and sediment sequences with which this project is chiefly concerned. They haveestablished relationships with, and access to working mines, and existing collaborations with other Chilean earth science professionals with experience of the Magallanes Basin and surrounding areas.

0520939安德森此计划访问奖将支持博士肯B。安德森和斯科特E. 2009年12月，在卡本代尔的南伊利诺伊大学，伊什曼教授与孔塞普西翁大学的Sonia海勒教授和Guillermo Alfaro教授举行了一次会议，讨论一个拟议项目，采用创新方法调查新近纪气候变化，将海洋沉积物的微古生物学调查与陆地沉积物的有机地球化学分析相结合。 由于德雷克海峡的开放产生的海洋和陆地有机沉积物的交错存在，该研究区域特别适合于本次调查（合恩角和南极洲之间），该地区被认为经历了重大的气候变化。海勒教授和阿尔法罗教授对该项目主要涉及的煤和沉积物序列有着丰富的经验和知识。关注他们与智利其他具有马加拉内斯盆地和周边地区经验的地球科学专业人员建立了关系，并进入了工作矿井，目前正在与他们合作。
