Glacial Geologic Investigation of Upper Rennick Glacier Region, Northern Victoria Land
The 1974-1975 field season was spent investigating the upper Rennick Glacier area (figure) for (1) the relationship between the glacial history of the study area and the glacial histories already defined for more southerly sectors of the Transantarctic Mountains, (2) the history and dimensions of fo...

Summary: | The 1974-1975 field season was spent investigating the upper Rennick Glacier area (figure) for (1) the relationship between the glacial history of the study area and the glacial histories already defined for more southerly sectors of the Transantarctic Mountains, (2) the history and dimensions of former fluctuations of the east antarctic ice sheet, Rennick Glacier, and its tributaries, as recorded in glacial deposits, and (3) the significance of this area in paleoclimatic reconstructions of Antarctica and the world. |
