Palaeoenvironments of the Nordenskjöld Formation: an Antarctic Late Jurassic—Early Cretaceous black shale-tuff sequence
1 January, 1991
This study documents the palaeoenvironments of a Jurassic-Cretaceous boundary black shale-tuff sequence exposed on the east coast of the Antarctic Peninsula. Sedimentological and palaeontological indices show that, during the deposition…Neogene interaction of tectonic and glacial processes at the Pacific margin of the Antarctic Peninsula
1 January, 1991 by Robert Larter
The Antarctic Peninsula was a magmatic arc subducting Pacific Ocean floor throughout the Mesozoic. During the Cenozoic, subduction ceased at each of a series of ridge‐crest–trench collisions, which migrated northeast…Controls on the petrographic evolution of an active margin sedimentary sequence: the Larsen Basin, Antarctica
1 January, 1991
The sedimentary fill of the Cretaceous-Tertiary Larsen Basin, located at the northern tip of the Antarctic Peninsula, records the evolution of the Antarctic Peninsula source terrain. Uplift, and the possible…The role of tectonics and eustasy in the evolution of a marginal basin: Cretaceous – Tertiary Larsen Basin, Antarctica
1 January, 1991
A 5–6 km thick, Cretaceous–Tertiary, marginal basin succession is exposed in the James Ross Island area (northern Antarctic Peninsula). Deep‐marine fan facies and slope‐apron facies (c. 2.5 km) are succeeded…
