Distribution of Diagenetic Snow Facies in Antarctica and in Greenland

Compares mostly the area and distribution of dry snow facies in the two regions. The relative area covered by this facies is three times larger in Antarctica where the dry snow line occurs at lower altitudes and at higher mean annual air temperatures. The ratio between the areas of soaked and of per...
