Aerophotographic interpretation of surface features and an estimation of ice discharge at the outlet of the Shirase drainage basin, Antarctica
Aerophotographs taken by the Japanese Antarctic Research Expedition in 1962,1969,1975 and 1977 are analyzed to classify distinctive surface structures, katabatic wind regime at the terminus of the Shirase Glacier (70°S, 39°E), and ice discharge from the Shirase drainage basin is calculated as the su...
