英文摘要 | The dynamics of the Antarctic ice sheet (AIS) have profound implications for the evolution of the Antarctic continental margin, global ocean currents, and climate changes. Marine sediments from the Antarctic continental margins recorded the history of the advance and retreat of the AIS. In this study, we present an integrated analysis of the sedimentary characteristics of the Early Miocene to Late Miocene of the Ross Sea by using 2D seismic reflection data and cores from International Ocean Discovery Program (IODP) Expedition 374 Sites U1521, U1522, and U1524. The characteristics of the seismic facies and sediments show that the expansion and grounding of the ice sheets across the continental shelf significantly influenced the depositional processes, leading to increased glacial erosion, the formation of prograding wedges, mass transport deposits (MTDs), and mixed (turbidite-contourite) depositional systems since the Early Miocene. The seaward migration of the continental shelf edge and the steepening of the continental slope were mainly influenced by the glaciation of extreme expansion of the AIS. Marked increases in the prograding wedge and MTD are associated with extensive sediment reworking and deposition at the grounding zones and along the continental slope as a result of ice sheet expansion. The development of the mixed (turbidite-contourite) depositional systems was the result of extensive sediment reworking and deposition by gravity flows and bottom currents on the continental slope and the rise. This research provides new insights into the complexity of the ice sheet and the sensibility of marginal sediments in responding to the past climate changes in Antarctica. |
