Abstract:
Sediments recovered from a drift deposit located on the Pacific side of the Antarctic Peninsula (ODP Leg 178, Site 1101) give a physical record of a bottom current, sourced from the Weddell Sea Deep Water, for the past 3 Ma. Sediment grain size and magnetic fabric analyses indicate a contourite depositional environment and little change in the average intensity of this current. Terrigenous fluxes decreased around the time of the onset of Northern Hemisphere Glaciation, which we interpret as a freezing of the base of the Antarctic Peninsula Ice Cap. Terrigenous fluxes have increased since 1.7 Ma implying a possible return of the Antarctic Peninsula Ice Cap to a more wet-based ice sheet.
