MARC recordThe recent advance of the Ross Ice Shelf, Antarctica / S.S. Jacobs, Douglas R. MacAyeal, J.L. Ardai, Jr.
| Title: | The recent advance of the Ross Ice Shelf, Antarctica / S.S. Jacobs, Douglas R. MacAyeal, J.L. Ardai, Jr. |
| Author(s): | Jacobs, S. S. MacAyeal, Douglas R. Ardai, J. L., |
| Date: | 1986. |
| In: | Journal of Glaciology. (1986.), Vol. 32(112) (1986) |
| Abstract: | Documents positions of ice-shelf edge from ships' observations 1968-85. These positions are compared with historical locations dating back to 1841 and with 1973-74 and 1986 satellite imagery. Apparent northward advance of ice shelf is compared with measurements of ice velocity. Basal melting near ice front is considered in relation to mass budget and calving versus iceberg inventories in Southern Ocean Erratum and omission noted, ibid, vol. 33, no. 114 1987, p. 251. |
| Notes: | Journal of Glaciology. Vol. 32(112) :464-474 (1986). |
