This study will demonstrate the usefulness of strontium, carbon, and            oxygen isotopic ratios of biogenic carbonate for dating sediments from          glaciomarine environments and interpreting paleoclimatic conditions in          Antarctic continental shelves.  The award will support an isotopic              (strontium, oxygen and carbon) study of foraminifera and bivalves from          sediments of Oligocene to Recent age recovered from several drillholes          and outcrops on Antarctica.  Age estimates based on Sr isotope analyses         will provide useful information about sedimentary and glacial processes         in Antarctica, as well as permit correlation of glaciomarine sequences          and assist in their correlation to lower latitude sedimentary                   successions.  It is the goal of this study to provide direct                    information about the Cenozoic climate of Antarctic marginal seas,              which is presently lacking.  Paleoceanography will be inferred from             oxygen and carbon isotope ratios.  Isotopic data from Antarctic                 bivalves and foraminifera will be compared with published records for           Cenozoic surface and deep waters at low and high latitudes.  This will          clarify the sources of bottom water formation in the world in the world         ocean and the relation between high and low latitude climates.
