Brief description

The Lambert Glacier Basin (LGB) series of five oversnow traverses were conducted from 1989-95. Several shallow depth ice cores (15-60 m) were drilled at selected sites along 2014 km of the main traverse track from LGB00 (68.6543 S, 61.1201 E) near Mawson Station to LGB72 (69.9209 S,76.4933 E) near Davis Station, and at selected sites along a western traverse line from LGB00 toward Enderby Land. Surface cores (2 m) were collected at 30 km intervals along the entire route from LGB00-LGB72. Ice cores have been kept in cool storage at a local cold room storage facility. Isotope data from the cores have been saved in various spreadsheet files (mainly MS Excel). Initial summary data can be obtained from CRC Research Note No.09 'Surface mass balance and snow surface properties from the Lambert Glacier Basin Traverses 1990-94'.
