New Paleomagnetic and Environmental Magnetic Studies of Old Cores from the Ross Sea Sector, Antarctica

这个项目是对南极洲的海洋沉积物岩芯进行古地磁调查。S大陆边缘。这些岩芯记录了南极洲的历史？南极冰盖是全球气候变化的重要记录。新的测量方法改进了测年和区域相关性，以确定古环境条件和冰盖行为。这些地核也记录了地球吗该项目的广泛影响包括博士后和本科生参与研究。对社会也有影响吗？这项工作有助于我们理解冰盖的行为及其与全球气候系统的联系。

This project performs a paleomagnetic survey of marine sediment cores from Antarctica?s continental margin. These cores record the history of Antarctica?s ice sheets and are important records of global climate change. The new measurements improve dating and regional correlations to ascertain paleoenvironmental conditions and ice sheet behavior. These cores also record the earth?s magnetic field near the pole, which offers insight into the workings of the geodynamo.The broader impacts of this project include postdoctoral and undergraduate participation in research. There are also implications for society?s understanding of global climate change, since this work improves our understanding of the behavior of ice sheets and their links to the global climate system.
