STUDY OF GLACIO-CLIMATIC CHANGES, PERMAFROST AND HYDROGEOLOGY ON NORTHERN ANTARCTIC PENINSULA REGION
Entry ID: CDA_AR_GLACIOLOGY_PICTA-32-2004

[ Update this Record ]

Summary
Abstract: ENGLISH

The cryosphere of the Antarctic Peninsula was subject to major changes in
recent decades, with a drastic reduction in the extent and volume of glaciers,
