Summary:
Although Ross Powell was not in Antarctica for the 2000-2001season, he wanted to know how much lateral movement there is in the sea ice in the Granite Harbor area in preparation for a proposed future drilling project. This lateral movement results in shear stress on the drill bit. Two Trimble geodetic receivers were provided to Rob Robbins, a member of the field team, on three different occasions. UNAVCO provided training, equipment, data processing support and data archiving for the project.
