Title: Appendix III. Scientific results of the western journey. Section 3: Effect of the summer sun on different varieties of ice and snow / Raymond Edward Priestley.
Author(s): Priestley, Raymond Edward.
Date: 1909.
Publisher: London: William Heinemann
In: Heart of the Antarctic : being the story of the British Antarctic Expedition 1907-1909. (1909.), v. 2
Abstract: Describes process of melting of large stretches of snow which produces largely unsupported crust over powder snow with larger granules than original drift; melt water around rocks on glacial moraines of Ferrar Glacier, and surface hydrology; and effect of sun's heat on snow among larger morainic debris. Observations made during Shackleton's 1907-09 Nimrod Antarctic expedition.
