ASAC_1164_AM01_Drilling

All scientific data collected by the Australian Antarctic program (AAp) are eventually described in the Catalogue of Australian Antarctic and Subantarctic Metadata (CAASM). CAASM can be used to search through AAp data descriptions, and it also provides links to access publicly available datasets, which can either be immediately downloaded or obtained from the Australian Antarctic Data Centre (AADC).

    Quality

    See Readme file ... A range of drill system parameters (water T, line P, flow rate, drill speed, well depth sensor level, etc ...) were recorded during drilling for diagnostics ... a complete set for the entire borehole was not recorded due to operational problems, and the fact a complete set had been obtained on a previous borehole (AM02).
