Activities of Japanese earth science research in the McMurdo Sound region in the 1985-1986 season
Continuous seismic observations have been carried out since December 1980 by a cooperative International Mount Erebus Seismological Studies (IMESS) which includes Japan, the United States and New Zealand. Three Japanese participating in the IMESS visited the McMurdo Sound region during the 1985-1986...

Gravity was measured at eight other points on Ross Island during the 1985-1986 field season.
