Abstract:Sea ice thickness was profiled in investigating the internal structure of sea ice in August 1982 near Syowa Station, East Antarctica, by drilling and using an impulse radar system. In this connection, the anisotropic properties of sea ice were studied by rotating the radar antenna on the horizontal surface of ice around the vertical axis.Ice cores 155 cm long were drilled for analysis of their internal structure, which showed that a brine-soaked layer existed at the depth of 90 cm. This layer corresponded to a… Show more
