Recent aeromagnetic and deep electromagnetic exploration projects in East Antarctica
Airborne geophysical surveys play a pivotal role in imaging subglacial geology and characterizing broad areas of the Antarctic liothsphere. Ground-based geophysics, coupled with airborne geophysics and geology, is essential to further elucidate crustal structure and tectonics. Recent Italian explora...

Airborne geophysical surveys play a pivotal role in imaging subglacial geology and characterizing broad areas of the Antarctic liothsphere. Ground-based geophysics, coupled with airborne geophysics and geology, is essential to further elucidate crustal structure and tectonics.

We review the main goals of four recent exploration projects performed between 1999-00 and the latest 2003-4 campaigns over this part of East Antarctica.
