Concordia, Antarctica, seismic experiment for the International Polar Year (CASE-IPY)
The CASE-IPY project, part of the larger POLENET initiative of geo-physical observations for the International Polar Year, was built on our extensive experience of running seismological stations in Antarctica, both on rock sites (Dumont d’Urville station), and directly on the ice plateau (Concordia...
