Portrait of an Antarctic outlet glacier
Antarctic outlet glacier with a "sack-shape " source region of as yet not exactly known southward extent and area (approximately lO^km2). It has a uniform or slightly wavy longitudinal profile, an approximately 7 km wide calving front between 46°15 ' and 46°20'E, and a partly flo...
