Gravity Base Stations in Antarctica
Gravity base stations established in Antarctica during the austral summer of 1960–61 are presented and compared with previous results by various observers. The use of two geodetic gravity meters, viz . a LaCoste-Romberg and a Worden has increased the accuracy and resolved several discrepancies. Ties...

Gravity base stations established in Antarctica during the austral summer of 1960–61 are presented and compared with previous results by various observers. The use of two geodetic gravity meters, viz . a LaCoste-Romberg and a Worden has increased the accuracy and resolved several discrepancies. Ties were made between Christchurch, New Zealand and the United States Antarctic Stations at McMurdo Sound, South Pole, Byrd, and Hallett, as well as satellite stations in West Antarctica and the New Zealand Scott Base at McMurdo ound. Station descriptions and observed gravity values are presented. |
