This paper is focused on investigations of polarimetric C-band radar signatures of icebergs
in sea-ice-covered ocean regions. The main objective is to assess the potential …

Ice cores were obtained in January 1990 from the land-fast ice in McMurdo Sound for a
study of variations in texture, fabric, sub-structure, composition and development. Two …

Data collected from a voyage of RV Nathaniel B. Palmer to the Bellingshausen and
Amundsen Seas during August–September 1993 are used to investigate the thickness …

During winter 1988, we examined the ice community in the ice edge region of the Weddell
and Scotia Seas. We measured chemical and physical characteristics of the ice habitat …

We compare laboratory measurements of wave propagation and attenuation in grease ice
with two viscous fluid models. The first is the classic infinite depth, constant viscosity one …

Freezing of mneltwater ponds below Arctic sea ice contributes significantly to summer ice
growth. An under‐ice pond, located below a surface melt puddle on a multiyear floe, was …

We use new observations in Western McMurdo Sound, combined with longitudinal
hydrographic transects of the sound, to identify a northward‐flowing Ice Shelf Water (ISW) …

The contrasts between Arctic and Antarctic sea ice are manifold, extending from the growth
environment through the properties and structure of the ice to the history of its study. The …

Dendritic crystals of platelet ice appear beneath the columnar land-fast sea ice of McMurdo
Sound, Antarctica. These leaf-like crystals are frozen into place by the advancing columnar …

Near ice shelves around Antarctica the ocean becomes supercooled and has been
observed to carry small suspended ice crystals. Our measurements demonstrate that these …
