This is a project to conduct geophysical surveys and acquire sediment cores from the fjords and continental shelf of southeastern Alaska. The data collected will be used to examine climatic variability in this region over the Holocene and Late Glacial interval. In particular, the study will determine if terrestrial climate changes in this region are linked to changes in regional ocean conditions and if decadal-scale climate changes, analogous to those in the historical record (referred to as the Pacific Decadal Oscillation"), are recorded in rapidly accumulating fjord sediments. If localities are discovered that yield important paleoclimatic records, these localities will be targeted in a drilling proposal for the Integrated Ocean Drilling Program.

这是一个进行地球物理调查并从阿拉斯加东南部峡湾和大陆架中获取沉积物核心的项目。收集的数据将用于检查全新世和晚期冰川间隔的该区域的气候变化。特别是，该研究将确定该地区的陆地气候变化是否与区域海洋状况的变化以及衰老尺度的气候变化有关，是否与历史记录中的那些类似于历史记录的变化（所谓的太平洋衰老振荡相似”），在迅速积累了峡谷的赛车场所，将迅速累积的赛车集成，如果发现了一项重要的练习。 程序。
