McMurdo Dry Valleys Ice Thickness for Taylor Valley Lakes, Antarctica

Ice thickness was measured from the bottom of the ice cover to the piezometric water level and to the top of the ice cover. Because most limnological sampling holes are drilled in low-lying areas, it was thought that ice thickness measurements were biased. Therefore, random ice thickness measurement...
