Objective | The scientific objectives of this cruise were to obtain long sedimentary sequences based on areas with medium to high rates of accumulation in key zones with respect to detrital inputs at sea and the main ocean water bodies to reproduce past variations of the South East Asian monsoon and intermediate and deep ocean circulation in the South China Sea. The related project is LIA MONOCL (International Associated Laboratory « Monsoon and Oceanic Circulation »). |
