Construction of ice domes at Asuka Station in Antarctica
An attempt was made to construct an ice dome in order to study the construction technique and to examine its deformation by creep and sublimation of ice in the Antarctic. A 10-m diameter membrane was inflated by a ventilator. Stored water was sprayed on it, and sometimes milled snow was blown by a s...
