Entry ID: ANDRILL_Pagodroma_Group

[ Update this Record ]

Summary
Abstract: Glacimarine strata of the Battye Glacier Formation (c.130 m thick),
Pagodroma Group, exposed in the Amery Oasis of East Antarctica,
provide a record of late Miocene palaeoenvironmental conditions in an
ice-distal setting. The formation overlies the Amery Erosion Surface
(c.300 m to c.270 m above sea level) that formed during an advance of
the Lambert Glacier, at least ... View entire text
