Blankenship, D. and R. Bell, 1993. Delving into the West Antarctic Ice
Sheet. Geotimes 38 (8), 12-15.Ice surface elevation and ice thickness data are available for a portion of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet. Ice surface elevations and ice thickness data are derived from laser altimetry and radar sounding results. These data are a result of the Corridor Aerogeophysics of the
Southeastern Ross Transect Zone (CASERTZ) experiments of the 1990s. The CASERTZ geophysical surveys were aimed at understanding geological controls on ice streams of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet, ultimately to help assess the potential for ice sheet collapse.VIEW RELATED INFORMATIONhttps://doi.org/10.7265/N5WW7FKCDocumentationGET DATAhttp://www.usap-dc.org/view/dataset/609099Get External DataPROJECT HOME PAGEhttp://www.ig.utexas.edu/research/projects/soar/Home page of the Support Office for Aerogeophysical Research (SOAR).USA/NOAACEOS IDN DIFVERSION 9.92004-03-172019-02-11NSIDCVersion SummaryNSIDCMinor VersionNSIDCCurrent Version1NSIDCFull Dataset CitationBlankenship, D.
