Seismic facies and stratigraphy of the Cenozoic succession in McMurdo Sound, Antarctica: Implications for tectonic, climatic and glacial history
TL;DR: A new stratigraphic model for the evolution of the Cenozoic Victoria Land Basin of the West Antarctic Rift, based on integration of seismic reflection and drilling data was presented by Fielding et al..
Journal ArticleDOI
A new heat flux model for the Antarctic Peninsula incorporating spatially variable upper crustal radiogenic heat production
TL;DR: In this paper, the upper crust contributes up to 70% of the Antarctic Peninsula's subglacial heat flux and that heat flux values are more variable at smaller spatial resolutions than geophysical methods can resolve.
Journal ArticleDOI
Discovery of a microcontinent (Gulden Draak Knoll) offshore Western Australia: implications for East Gondwana reconstructions
Robyn Gardner,Nathan R. Daczko,Jacqueline A. Halpin,Jacqueline A. Halpin,Joanne M. Whittaker +4 more
TL;DR: The Gulden Draak Knoll is a submarine rifted continental fragment that lies at the boundary between the western Perth Abyssal Plain and Wharton Basin, Indian Ocean.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sea level fluctuations driven by changes in global ocean basin volume following supercontinent break-up
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the influence of back-arc basins, spreading asymmetry, large igneous provinces (LIPs), sediment thickness, and passive margins on ocean basin volume since 200 million years.
Journal ArticleDOI
How supercontinents and superoceans affect seafloor roughness
TL;DR: A global analysis of marine gravity-derived roughness, sediment thickness, seafloor isochrons and palaeo-spreading rates of Cretaceous to Cenozoic ridge flanks reveals that residual roughness anomalies of 5–20 mGal remain over large swaths of ocean floor after eliminating effects related to spreading rate and sediment thickness.
