Summary: The ANDRILL project will retrieve sediment cores from the surface underlying the Ross Sea and the Ross Ice Shelf which will compliment the data record obtained from previous cores. During the 2005-2006 season a camp was established on the sea ice in McMurdo Sound. The group performed acoustic soundings of the ocean floor along two 15-km transects with the goal of locating a secondary drill site if the sea ice at their primary drill site (farther north) is unsuitable for drilling during the 2006-2007 season. UNAVCO surveyed borehole locations for each shot and provided a two-week continuous measurement of sea ice motion at the camp site. |
