In: | New Scientist. (2006.), Vol. 192(2580) (2006) |
Abstract: | Discusses Antarctic lakes with particular reference to Lake Vostok. Considers formation, geological history and ecology. Also considers possible effect of hidden lakes on overlying ice and importance in determining fate of Antarctic ice sheets. Examines theory that Labyrinth (in Dry Valleys of East Antarctica) has been carved by massive underground flood. |
