Marine Geology in Antarctica
01. Final Object

To carry out the field survey on the basin near antarctic continents according to the step

To obtain the data interpreting morphological and stratigraphic structure, and understanding the development and distribution of sedimentary basin at survey area

02. Study Contents

On the long-term plan, to divide antarctic survey area into some step's, by the subject of study at shelf, continental slop, and sedimentary basin in the vicinity of Antarctic continent

According to the annual plan on each step, to acquire multichannel seismic data, marine gravity data, marine magnetic data, and coring samples, by carrying on field surveys

To understand submarine morphological, stratigraphic, and tectonic structure by data-processing and analysis, to appreciate the distribution and scale of the sedimentary basin, and to comprehend the sedimentary process and environment

To make out the seismic section, the map of sediments distribution and tectonic structure, and columnar section of core
