		The ice edge and fast ice on the southern edge of this polynya are situated over the continental shelf, one of the few place in our study area with ice-covered shelf habitats, due to this year's sea ice distribution.
		There is a strong trend toward lower zooplankton and krill biomass on the shelf compared to the pelagic zone, and perhaps a slight trend toward lower krill and zooplankton biomass in the eastern region of the shelf compared to the western region in our sampling area.
		Ice coring opportunites in conjunction with diving operations are providing links between the ice properties and physical and biological processes observed at the ice underside.

		The Ross Sea continental shelf west of Cape Colbeck and the Edward VII Peninsula in western Marie Byrd Land was investigated using marine geophysics during cruise 9601 of the RVIB Nathaniel B. Palmer.
		Minor west tilting of the shelf during the Late Cenozoic was the result of continued subsidence of the continental shelf along with possible uplift of western Marie Byrd Land associated with the Marie Byrd Land dome to the east.
		Modern ice near most of these troughs is not thick enough for ice to ground at their deepest points by simple lowering of sea level.

		The overall theme of the meeting was, primarily, the coordination of ice radar sounding surveys of the grounding zone of the entire Antarctic Ice Sheet, and secondarily, the coordination of surface mass balance measurements and surface ice velocities.
		Ice-thickness measurements were also made by Swedish glaciologists along Bailey Ice Stream during the Nor-wegian expedition of Dr M Kristensen in 1992, in the vicinity of the grounding zone of the Filcher Ice Shelf.
		Establishing velocities of glaciers, ice streams, ice sheets, and ice shelves is essential to calculate the discharge of the mass balance equation.

		The potential sea-level rise after melting of the entire Antarctic ice sheet is estimated to be 65 m to 73 m.
		In spite of its importance, the mass balance (the net volumetric gain or loss) of the Antarctic ice sheet is poorly known; it is not known whether the ice sheet is growing or shrinking.
		As a result, measurement of changes in the Antarctic ice sheet was given a very high priority in recommendations by the Polar Research Board of the National Research Council (1986), by the Scientific Committee on Antarctic Research (SCAR) (1989), and by the National Science Foundation's (1990) Division of Polar Programs.

		The remaining ice is at the north and south poles and is isolated from warmer weather.
		The near-future impact of the ice sheet on global sea level is largely due to processes internal to the movement of the ice sheet, and not so much to the threat of a possible greenhouse warming.
		Last week's dramatic demise of the Larsen B ice shelf in Antarctica has been embraced by environmentalists and commentators who warn of human-induced "global warming." After all, the ice shelf was 200 meters thick, with a surface area three times the size of Hong Kong.

	Antarctic Explorers: Richard E. Byrd
		After several days of exploration in the vicinity, a site was selected on top of the Ross Ice Shelf on the east side of the bay, approximately eight miles from where the ship was tied up and four miles north of Amundsen's base camp, Framheim.
		After leaving the CITY OF NEW YORK at the edge of the ice pack on December 11, the ELEANOR BOLLING sailed for and arrived at Dunedin on December 20 where she promptly took on a second cargo, departing on January 14 for the return trip to the Bay of Whales.
		Meanwhile, the ice conditions were so poor that Byrd radioed orders to the ELEANOR BOLLING, which was returning to the Bay of Whales with a third load of cargo, to wait at the edge of the ice pack for the CITY OF NEW YORK and return with her to New Zealand.

		Ocean tides play a significant role in the complex interactions between the atmosphere, ocean, sea ice and floating glacial ice shelves.
		Tidal currents create turbulent mixing at the bottom of the ice shelf contributing to the creation of rifts for the possible detachment of part of the icebergs and can influence heat transport between the ice shelf and seawater.
		Improved knowledge of the grounding line is inherently necessary to study ice mass balance and its contribution to the global sea level change.

		An aerogeophysical survey of the western Marie Byrd Land region of Antarctica was flown in Dec. 1998-Jan. 1999, measuring surface and base of ice elevation by radar and strength of magnetic and gravity fields.
		The coverage area measured about 460 by 360 km, long dimension oriented NE, and included the Shirase Coast of the eastern Ross Ice Shelf, much of the Edward VII Peninsula, the Sulzberger Ice Shelf, and the Ford Ranges.
		Determination of gravity anomalies required corrections for acceleration of the aircraft as measured by differential carrier-phase GPS navigation, filtering to remove wavelengths less than 10 km, which are commonly contaminated by aircraft motion, and editing of occasional spikes.
