Summary:
Dr. Marchant and his group are studying buried ice and microclimates of the Dry Valleys. They requested the use of one 
Trimble 5700/R7 to measure the location of their radar lines.  Besides equipment UNAVCO assisted them with post-processing and data archival.

Additionally UNAVCO provided field assistance to G054 when they re-measured bolts, which were installed in December 2004 on gelifluction 
lobes east of the Stocking glacier (Figure 10). They want to determine the surface flow velocities of the lobes, which will help them better 
understand these flow features in Antarctica. UNAVCO provided three Trimble 5700/R7 receivers for the field campaign, post- processing support 
and data archiving.
