Volcanic glass shards were identified in two new marine sediment cores from the South Shetland Islands region during the RV Hakuho Maru KH-19-6 Leg 4 2019\/2020 voyage. Core PC01 was collected in Bransfield Strait and core PC04 in the South Shetland Trough. This region is of volcanological interest for several reasons including that it meets geographic and geological location criteria needed to investigate the relationship between volcanism and glacial isostatic adjustment. We present the results from physical and geochemical characterisation of the volcanic glass shards within these cores together with results of C14 organic carbon dating and paleoenvironmental studies of the cores. PC04 hosts 3 layers of tephra comprising volcanic glass shards with bimodal dacite-rhyolite and andesite-basaltic andesite compositions. PC01 contains 14 layers hosting volcanic glass shards. Between ca. 6-5 ka the glass shard compositions are primarily basalt-basaltic andesite. At 3 150 \u00b1 200 ka, PC01 glass shard compositions are bimodal comprising rhyolite and basalt-basaltic andesite. Trace and major element compositions provide a geochemical fingerprint consistent with pre- and post-caldera collapse (3 980 \u00b1 125 yr; Antoniades et al., 2018) Deception Island sources for most PC01and PC04 volcanic glass shards. Using biological production, ice sheet melting and land source debris indices we identified at least 3 local ice sheet melting events within PC01 and consider the relationship between the timing of volcanism recorded in the cores and the melting events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When: Tuesday, 11th November 2025, 9 AM GMT Join us for our next seminar with our speaker Jodi Fox, Institute for Marine and Antarctic Studies, University of Tasmania, Australia.
