Resource Abstract:
- description: The U.S. Geological Survey recovered 9 piston cores from the Northwind Ridge in the Canada Basin of the Arctic
Ocean from a cruise of the USCGC Polar Star during 1988. Preliminary analysis of the cores suggests sediments deposited on
Northwind Ridge preserve a detailed record of glacial and interglacial cycles for the last few hundred-thousand to one million
years. This report includes quantitative data on foraminifers and selected sediment size-fraction data in samples from Northwind
Ridge core PI-88AR P5.; abstract: The U.S. Geological Survey recovered 9 piston cores from the Northwind Ridge in the Canada
