Gravity modelling across the Transantarctic Mountains, Northern Victoria Land Gravity modelling across the Transantarctic Mountains, Northern Victoria Land
During GANOVEX V and GANOVEX VI, new gravity data were collected in northern Victoria Land. The GANOVEX V data cover the Mt. Melbourne 1:250.000 quadrangle, while the GANOVEX VI data Transantarctic Mountains south of the Drygalski Ice Tongue. The two data sets are connected by a coastal traverse. The measurements were constrained by satellite-positioned elevation (GPS) data and, in some...
