Summary:
Major crack systems and seal holes southwest of Tent Island were surveyed for Dr. Davis this season. UNAVCO provided field support using Trimble 4700 systems, data processing and archiving. Dr. Davis' group applies "dead-reckoning" methods to study dive paths of Weddell seals, and the GPS surveys will be used in conjunction with the group's seal tracking efforts.
