Sommario/riassunto |
|
Papers based on work presented at a conference held at the University of California, Santa Barbara, August 28-31 1991, entitled 'The Role of the Southern Ocean and Antarctica in Global Change : an Ocean Drilling Perspective.' Papers deal with paleoenvironmental data from the Antarctic, including geology, climate, fossils, sediments and the eustatic record. |
Published by the American Geophysical Union as part of the Antarctic Research Series, Volume 56.The Antarctic continent and the surrounding Southern Ocean represent one of the major climate engines of the Earth: coupled components critical in the Earth's environmental system. The contributions in this volume help with the understanding of the long-term evolution of Antarctica's environment and biota. The aim of this and the succeeding companion volume is to help place the modern system within a historical context.A large number of workers have contributed much in providing the necessary reviews of the contributions published in this volume; we heartily thank you all: J. B. Anderson, J. H. Andrews, M. P. Aubry, J. A. Barron, G. W. Brass, L. H. Burckle, C. Charles, A. K. Cooper, A. R. Edwards, D. K. Futterer, T. R. Janacek, M. Katz, L. D. Keigwin, L. A. Krissek, D. J.
