Summary:
Algal mats grow in and moss grows around ponds which develop and migrate as a result of differential melting of ground ice in the hummocky moraines in the Dry Valleys. B-011 is studying the effect of these pond ecosystems on the carbon cycle of the Dry Valleys. 1.5” PVC pipe markers drilled into the ground last season were surveyed again with fast-static methods and will be monitored for changes. Pond shorelines and vertical profiles of topography around the ponds were mapped using post-processing kinematic methods. Field support in both Hjorth and Garwood valley, data processing, and data archiving were provided.
