Abstract

Leg 177 marked the return of the JOIDES Resolution to the Southern Ocean after more than a decade, and the successful recovery of a superb suite of cores has significantly improved the latitudinal and bathymetric coverage of drilled-ocean sites in the high-latitude Southern Hemisphere. These cores will be used as the raw material for investigating the role of the Southern Ocean in millennial-scale climate variability, glacial/interglacial cycles of the Plio-Pleistocene, and the longterm evolution of the Antarctic ocean-cryosphere system during the Cenozoic.
