B r o W N i N G a 180-Million-year record of Sea level and ice Volume Variations from continental Margin and Deep-Sea isotopic records Drilling conducted by the integrated ocean Drilling program (ioDp) on the inner, shallow part of the New Jersey shelf required the use of a threelegged lift boat.Not affected by tide or swell, a successful coring and downhole logging program through loosely consolidated shelf sediments was achieved.Photo courtesy of IODP/ECORD
