Description:

Abstract:: This dataset contains records of ice thickness and snow thickness from Mawson, Antarctica. Measurements are attempted on a weekly basis and have been recorded since 1954 and are ongoing, although data have only been archived up until 2002. The observations are not continuous however. The dataset is available via the State of the Environment Indicator Fast Ice Thickness (SOE_fast_ice_thickness). See the url below for more details. This data were also collected as part of ASAC projects 189 and 741. Logbooks(s): Glaciology Sea Ice Log, Mawson 1969 Glaciology Mawson Sea Ice Logs, 1995-2000
