Glacier lake outburst flood on James Ross Island, Antarctic Peninsula region
Abstract: A glacier lake outburst flood occurred on James Ross Island, Antarctic Peninsula region, during the 2004–2005 austral summer season. The source lake was located on the Lachman II ice−cored rock glacier, and formed prior to 1980. The size of the lake has been increasing gradually since the...

The source lake was located on the Lachman II ice−cored rock glacier, and formed prior to 1980. The size of the lake has been increasing gradually since the 1990s. The lake basin extended to approximately 220 m in length and 160 m in width by the end of February 2005.
