Low temperature Antarctic Automatic Weather Stations
During the International Polar Year (IPY, 2007-2009), several ground traverses penetrated the remote interior plateau of East Antarctica to search (among other things) for the oldest ice chronology on Earth. One of those traverses connected the Norwegian Troll station to Amundsen-Scott South Pole st...
