Dynamics of the Ross Ice Shelf

The changing flow of the Ross Ice Shelf is described based on AVHRR data from 18 cloud-free images which evince flow stripes and form the data for a glaciological map. The discharge region of the valley glaciers in the Transantarctic Mountains is found to have curvilinear stripes, and the brightness...
