Abstract:
High-precision Global Positioning System measurements of stainless steel pins embedded in solid bedrock were collected at two sites in the northern Transantarctic Mountains (Mt. Coates and Mt. Cocks) over the time period 1996-2001. The data collection was mainly during the austral summers, but some data were collected at Mt. Coates during the austral winter of 2000. Both raw and rinex format data files are archived. The 4-character station IDs are COAT and MTCX. Data were collected and reported at 30 sec intervals.
