The Electrical Behaviors of Antarctic Ice Drilled at Mizuho Station, East Antarctica
P(論文) The electrical properties of Antarctic firn and ice cores drilled at Mizuho Station (70°41'53"S, 44°19'54"E) to the depth of 145m were studied in a wide range of frequency (0.1Hz to 1MHz) and temperature (0 to -50℃). Remarkable differences were found between the cores taken...
