| Title: | The recent advance of the polar ice in the Greenland and Spitzbergen Sea / David Gray. |
| Author(s): | Gray, David. |
| Date: | 1881. |
| In: | Royal Geographical Society. Proceedings. (1881.), New series 3(12) (1881) |
| Abstract: | Letter, accompanied by map p.768, showing margin of ice between Iceland and Spitsbergen during 1880 and 1881; advance southwards of ice edge, despite strong northerly winds thought to be due to absence of southerly drift, as lanes of water between floes immediately re-freeze, preventing break-up of ice. |
