The literature search was conducted in order to determine the amount and type of reliable antarctic ice data available and to tabulate the distribution and characteristics of these data. In this search, approximately 900 bibliography cards were examined. Of these 900 cards, about 400 sources were evaluated, and some 45 were tabulated. In addition, a list of supplementary sources is presented. (Author).
Procedures for preparing short-range (48-hour) forecasts and long-range (15- and 30-day) estimates of austral summer sea ice conditions in the western Ross Sea and McMurdo Sound are given. Magnitude and direction of short-period ice drift are related to pack concentration, topography, and thickness, surface currents, and forecasted surface wind velocities. Long-period ice estimates are based on analog techniques relating various environmental factors to pack growth, extent, and disintegration as well as using the progression of ice melt indicated by selected historical data. Examples of short-range ice forecasts and long-range estimates are given. Techniques are included for interpreting sea ice from satellite imagery.
This technical report describes the methods of securing, processing and storing submarine sediment data at the U.S. Naval Oceanographic Office. Data sources are listed and world wide distribution by one-degree quadrangles is shown. (Author).
