Mid-Ocean Ridges are the most extensive magmatic system on Earth, producing 75 per cent of the planet's volcanism with the resulting processes governing the architecture of at least two thirds of the surface of our planet. A representative stratigraphic record of the order, eruption style, and extent of mid-ocean ridge lava flows is required to understand seafloor spreading, a fundamental process in plate tectonics. As access to ocean crust is restricted to scientific ocean drilling and the use of submersibles, physical and chemical information on the nature of upper ocean crust is limited to recovered rock. However, during scientific ocean drilling, the proportion of recovered rock compared to the length drilled is both generally low and highly variable. These recovered samples have been shown to reflect a bias towards stronger, more competent lithologies, with weaker, more incompetent rock types underrepresented. This highlights that recovered physical samples from scientific expeditions display only a partial representation of reality. Integration of recovered physical drill cores with quantitative geophysical wireline logging data can provide representations of the volcanic stratigraphy at drilled sections of mid-ocean ridges. The unification of a physical but incomplete dataset, with a complete but abstract quantitative dataset, provides constraints on biases within recovered samples. An understanding of the bias reflected in recovered samples is essential to avoid inaccurate estimations of key planetary processes such as the extent of heat, chemical, and mass exchange between ocean crustal rocks and seawater. The understanding and quantification of these exchanges is necessary in evaluating the role of mid-ocean ridges on long-term global geochemical cycles (e.g., C, H2O) and the wider habitability of the planet. International Ocean Discovery Program (IODP) Expeditions 390 and 393 will drill a transect of six sites across the South Atlantic, recovering ocean crust formed at the Mid-Atlantic Ridge between 7 and 61 million years ago. I will integrate observations of physically recovered core samples with quantitative geophysical wireline logging data from these drillholes to reconstruct the volcanic history along a transect of the aging western flank of the southern Mid-Atlantic Ridge . The resulting stratigraphy will provide an essential foundation for subsequent investigations and quantifications of planetary processes at mid-ocean ridges.

大洋中脊是地球上最广泛的岩浆系统，产生了地球上75%的火山活动，由此产生的过程控制着地球表面至少三分之二的结构。为了了解海底扩张，板块构造的一个基本过程，需要一个有代表性的大洋中脊熔岩流的顺序，喷发方式和范围的地层记录。由于获取洋壳的途径仅限于科学海洋钻探和使用潜水器，因此关于上洋壳性质的物理和化学信息仅限于回收的岩石。然而，在科学海洋钻探期间，回收的岩石与钻探长度相比的比例通常很低，而且变化很大。这些回收的样品已被证明反映出倾向于更强，更称职的岩性，较弱，更不称职的岩石类型代表不足。这突出表明，从科学考察中恢复的物理样本只显示了现实的部分表现。将回收的实际岩心与定量地球物理电缆测井数据相结合，可以提供大洋中脊钻井段火山地层的图示。物理但不完整的数据集与完整但抽象的定量数据集的统一，提供了对恢复样本内偏差的约束。了解回收样品中反映的偏差对于避免对关键行星过程的不准确估计至关重要，例如海洋地壳岩石和海水之间的热量，化学和质量交换的程度。了解和量化这些交换对于评价大洋中脊对长期全球地球化学循环的作用是必要的（例如，C，H2O）和更广泛的地球可居住性。国际海洋发现计划（IODP）第390和393号探险队将在南大西洋的六个地点进行钻探，恢复700万至6100万年前在大西洋中脊形成的洋壳。我将把物理回收的岩心样品的观察结果与来自这些钻孔的定量地球物理电缆测井数据相结合，以重建沿着大西洋中脊南部老化西侧的一个横断面沿着的火山历史。由此产生的地层学将为以后调查和量化洋中脊的行星过程提供重要基础。
