Description
Summary:During the Deep Sea Drilling Project (DSDP) and the Ocean Drilling Program (ODP), continuous non-destructive measurements such as magnetic susceptibility, gamma-ray density, and P-wave velocity of whole-round and split cores were of great importance for paleoceanographic, structural, and sedimentological studies. The data sets have been used to determine coring strategy, inter-hole correlation, and core-logging integration, and to record the physical condition of the core before discrete sampling. These data series also allow spectral analyses and correlations to orbitally calibrated timescales. Non-destructive measurements hold great potential in the multi-platform Integrated Ocean Drilling Program (IODP) and its associated laboratories at the IODP core repositories.
