New maps of the ice thickness and subglacial topography in Dronning Maud Land, Antarctica, determined by means of airborne radio echo sounding
Since the austral summer 1994/95 the Alfred Wegener Institute (AWI) hascarried out airborne radio echo sounding measurements (RES) in Antarctica withits newly designed RES system. Since 1995/96 an ongoing presite survey foran ice coring drill site in Dronning Maud Land (DML) has been carried out.Thi...
