The Italian sedimentological community works in Ross Sea since 1987. Many oceanographic and marine geology cruises were performed in order to investigate the areas along the Northern Victoria Land toward the Central Ross Sea. Many grabs, box cores and sediment cores samples were collected. Current researches are focused on the Holocene climate variability at high-southern latitude (Holoclip Project) and on a multidisciplinary approach to study the continental slope in order to understand past and present sedimentary dynamic in the ROSS Sea (Rosslope Project). The collaboration between Korean and Italian researchers will permit to collect new data in order to provide direct observations on modern and past bottom water processes during the Antarctic Araon cruise planned for the austral summer of 2012/2013.

Abstract
The Italian sedimentological community works in Ross Sea since 1987. Many oceanographic and marine geology cruises were performed in order to investigate the areas along the Northern Victoria Land toward the Central Ross Sea. Many grabs, box cores and sediment cores samples were collected. Current researches are focused on the Holocene climate variability at high-southern latitude (Holoclip Project) and on a multidisciplinary approach to study the continental slope in order to understand past and present sedimentary dynamic in the ROSS Sea (Rosslope Project). The collaboration between Korean and Italian researchers will permit to collect new data in order to provide direct observations on modern and past bottom water processes during the Antarctic Araon cruise planned for the austral summer of 2012/2013.Pubblicazioni consigliate
