Airborne-based geophysical investigation in Dronning Maud Land, Antarctica
Antarctica represents a key component in the investigation of the geological history and reconstruction of the supercontinents Rodinia and Gondwana. Remnants of the formation and disintegration of these former land masses can be found, although great uncertainties remain in the location of tectonic...

Antarctica represents a key component in the investigation of the geological history and reconstruction of the supercontinents Rodinia and Gondwana.
