Summary: | As part of the Long Term Ecological Research (LTER) project in the McMurdo Dry Valleys of Antarctica, a systematic sampling program has been undertaken to monitor mass balance and meltwater flow from the Taylor Valley glaciers. This dataset contains snow density measurements determined at each stake with snow present on the glaciers of Taylor Valley. Included here for each stake are the snow thickness and density for each layer and the average density for each pit. |
