| Summary: | "Submitted by Richard P. Goldthwait to the National Science Foundation, in partial fulfillment of Grant No. NSF-G8992." At head of title: "IGC Antarctic Glaciological Data Field Work 1959." This report presents the results of the glaciological program at Byrd Station during the winter of 1959 and the summer traverse of 1959-60. All field measurements were made by John Pirrit and George A. Doumani. While the glaciologists were on the Executive Range Traverse, 14 February to 6 March 1959, the thermohms at Byrd Station were read daily by H. LeVaux, the aurora physicist. During the summer traverse, the glaciologists were assisted in the snow pit work by E. Boudette, visiting USGS geologist. The glaciological data are given in four appendices. National Science Foundation Grant No. NSF-G8992.
