Understanding basal processes across ice-sheet grounding lines is crucial in accurately modeling ice-sheet dynamics and estimating global sea-level rise. The grounding line, which demarcates the specific boundary between a grounded ice sheet and a floating ice shelf…
As the use of coastal and offshore environments expands, there is a need to better understand the exposure of marine megafauna to anthropogenic activities that potentially threaten their populations. Individual satellite telemetry studies are often hampered by small sample sizes…
Historically, king penguin populations on Macquarie Island have suffered greatly from human exploitation. Two large colonies on the island were drastically reduced to a single small colony as a result of harvesting for the blubber oil industry. However…
The Lambert Glacier region of East Antarctica encompasses the proposed boundary between three of the ancient continents that … formed East Gondwana: Indo-Antarctica, the central East Antarctic Craton and a proposed extension of the Pinjarra Orogen of … Australia.
Abstract Since it is the largest glacier system in Antarctica, the Lambert Glacier basin plays an important role in the mass balance of the overall Antarctic ice sheet.
Hot water drilling of the Amery Ice Shelf conducted as a component of the AMISOR (Amery Ice Shelf Ocean Research) project to enable access the underlying ocean cavity has allowed limited retrieval of ice cores using a hot water coring barrel.
In 1999 the Glaciology Program of the Australian Antarctic Division initiated a 5-year study of … glaciological investigations into the interaction between the Amery Ice Shelf and the underlying … ocean. The principle objectives of this project are:
The Cenozoic glacial history of East Antarctica is recorded in part by the stratigraphy of the Prydz … Bay–Lambert Graben region. The glacigene strata and associated erosion surfaces record at least 10 intervals … of glacial advance (with accompanying erosion and sediment compaction)…
Oversnow traverses have collected a variety of glaciological measurements around the interior drainage basin of the Lambert Glacier, East Antarctica (longitudes 54°-78°E, latitudes 67°-76°S), between 1989-90 and 1994-95.
Ice shelves play a major role in the discharge of ice from Antarctica both from iceberg calving and basal melt, and processes of ocean-ice interaction beneath the shelf are of increasing scientific interest.
Antarctica’s Lambert graben, Australia’s North West Shelf, and the eastern Indian Peninsula all host thick, fault-bounded … Permian-Triassic successions. These terranes were adjacent to each … other in Gondwana. The Lambert graben intersects the modern … coastline…
We combine ERS-1 satellite radar altimeter surface elevations (Fricker and others, this issue) with six different accumulation distributions to compute balance fluxes for the Lambert Glacier-Amery Ice Shelf Drainage system.
The Lambert Glacier–Amery Ice Shelf system is a major component of the East Antarctic ice sheet. This paper presents two Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) that have been generated for the Lambert Glacier - Amery Ice Shelf system from validated ERS-1 satellite radar altimeter waveform data.
