Summary:
UNAVCO provided five Trimble 5700 receivers for summer-long deployments. Dr. Wilson's group conducts GPS measurements of crustal motions in the Transantarctic Mountains in order to document neotectonic displacements caused by tectonic deformation within the West Antarctic Rift or mass changes in the Antarctic ice sheets. UNAVCO support also included training in the use of the Trimble 5700 and field support. One 5700 was deployed at Mt. Fleming for data collection through the winter.
