Perhaps counterintuitively, sediment layers are more likely to remain intact on the seafloor than on land, so they can provide a better record of the region's history.
There's a wide variety of life and sediment types found at the different sites we surveyed. The oldest place we visited-an area scarred by ancient glacier movement-is a fossilized seascape that was completely unexpected.
I'm very interested in analyzing seismic data and correlating it with the layers of sediment in the core samples to create a timeline of geological events in the area, which will help us better understand the sediment history.
