Abstract New strain data relating to flexural oscillations of the Erebus Glacier Tongue (EGT), McMurdo Sound, Antarctica, are presented and are analysed in the frequency domain. The data were collected during November 1989, just 3 months prior to the most recent calving of the ice tongue which occur...
