Cores
BOSCORF was lucky to have Tatiana Glazkova from Royal Holloway University visit to log, scan and sample a legacy core collection from the JC027 cruise in 2009. Tatiana's research focuses on fine-grained sediments in the deep ocean, particularly those affected by bottom currents. She uses a range of data at multiple scales collected from deep marine gaps, where topographic constriction may be modifying currents and potentially amplifying their influence on the deposition of sediment. This is a great example of where BOSCORF's legacy collection of cores can be brought back to life to help the next generation of researchers explore new horizons in the deep sea.
