Report of the Japanese Summer Parties in Dry Valleys, Victoria Land IX. A Preliminary Report of the Geophysical Study of Dry Valleys in 1970-1971 (Reports of the Japanese Antarctic Research Expedition)
The geophysical study of Lake Vanda in the Dry Valley, Victoria Land, was carried out by the Japanese party in the austral summer of 1970-71. The work was supported by the Ministry of Education and the Science Council of Japan. It was conducted as a part of the New Zealand Antarctic Research Program...
