Katabatic winds, hydraulic jumps and wind flow over the Vestfold Hills, East Antarctica

This paper examines two strong or gale-force wind events which began suddenly at Platcha, near the Antarctic ice sheet edge in the Vestfold Hills of East Antarctica, and at a later time were recorded at Davis after progressing slowly across the intervening 25 km of relatively low hills.
