Fast ice distribution in Adélie Land, East Antarctica: interannual variability and implications for emperor penguins Aptendytes fosteri
International audience Antarctic fast ice is of key climatic and ecological importance, yet its distribution and variability are poorly understood. We present a detailed analysis of fast ice along the Adélie Land coast (East Antarctica) using satellite data from 1992 to 1999. Fast ice formation alon...
