The primary objective is to investigate Antarctica’s role in global environmental change over the past sixty-fi ve million years, at various scales of age resolution, and thereby enhance our understanding of Antarctica’s potential response to future global changes. Efforts to understand the infl uence of Antarctica on global climate change require a fundamental knowledge of how the Antarctic cryosphere (ice sheets, ice shelves, and sea ice) has evolved, not only in recent times but also during earlier geological periods when global temperature and atmospheric CO2 levels were similar to what might be reached by the end of this century. ANDRILL’s integrated science approach will use stratigraphic drilling, coring, and multi-proxy core analysis combined with geophysical surveys and numerical modeling to study the Cenozoic history of Antarctic climate and ice sheets, the evolution of polar biota, Antarctic tectonism, and Antarctica’s role in the evolution of Earth’s ocean–climate system.256 371 - PublicationOpen AccessLate Cenozoic climate history of the Ross Embayment from the AND -1B drill hole: Culmination of three decades of Antarctic margin drilling(2007-08-26)

K. ;Raymond, C. R.ISAES Editorial TeamBecause of the paucity of exposed rock the direct physical record of Antarctic Cenozoic glacial history has become known only recently and then largely from off-shore shelf basins through seismic surveys and drilling. The number of holes has been small and largely confined to three areas (McMurdo Sound, Prydz Bay and Antarctic Peninsula), but even in McMurdo Sound, where Oligocene and early Miocene strata are well-cored, the Late Cenozoic is poorly known and dated. The latest Antarctic geological drilling program, ANDRILL, successfully cored a 1285m-long record of climate history spanning the last 13 m.y. from sub-sea floor sediment beneath the McMurdo Ice Shelf (MIS), using drilling systems specially developed for operating through ice shelves. The cores provide the most complete Antarctic record to date of ice sheet and climate fluctuations for this period of Earth’s history. The >60 cycles of advance and retreat of the grounded ice margin preserved in the AND¬1B record the evolution of the Antarctic ice sheet since a profound global cooling step in deep sea oxygen isotope records ~14 m.y. ago. A feature of particular interest is a ~90m-thick interval of diatomite deposited during the warm Pliocene, and representing an extended period (~200,000 years) of locally open water, high phytoplankton productivity and retreat of the glaciers on land.443 292 - PublicationOpen AccessLate Cenozoic Climate History of the Ross Embayment from the AND-1B Drill Hole: Culmination of Three Decades of Antarctic Margin Drilling(2008)

This second drill core of the program’s campaign in the western Ross Sea, Antarctica, complements the results of the first drilling season [Naish et al., 2007] by penetrating deeper into the stratigraphic section in the Victoria Land Basin and extending the recovered time interval back to approximately 20 million years ago.288 33
