Detailed graphic log of the core recovered from the DVDP-10 borehole in lower Taylor Valley, Dry Valleys, Antarctica, showing the preservation of putative root-penetrated coastal plain strata of Lower Pliocene age, and a stratigraphic cross-section from upper Taylor Valley, through DVDP-10 and into McMurdo Sound showing correlation of the Neogene succession across the region.
