contents From the upper 300 m of CRP-2/2A, twenty-six samples of diamicts and deformation structures have been thin sectioned. These have been analysed for texture, structure, diagenesis and plasmic fabric. The combination of certain microstructures (e.g. turbate and linear) and plasmic fabric development is indicative of grounded ice. Clear evidence for two grounded ice events (three samples) was found in the upper Oligocene part of the core. The interpretation of ten more samples is less certain, but as for CRP-1, is taken to point to grounded ice as well. There is a strong correlation between these indications for grounded ice and the basal part of cycles in the sequence stratigraphy.
