Date: | 2002. |
Publisher: | New York: Kluwer Academic/Plenum |
Abstract: | Presents 17 papers from meeting to assess scientific potential of Patagonian icefields held onboard Chilean Naval vessel Aquiles, travelling from Punta Arenas to Puerto Montt 24-28 March, 2000 and on 29 March in Valdivia. Group headings include biology, climate and paleoclimate, glaciology, and ice coring, with recommendations for development of future research in icefields of southern Chile and Argentina. |
