Summary: Dr. Doran returned to measure the positions of ablation stakes on lakes Fryxell, Hoare, and Bonney to help determine the motion of surface ice on these perennially frozen lakes. UNAVCO trained to two members of the B-426 team and provided them with a pair of Trimble 5700 GPS systems for their field work.  UNAVCO also assisted in field measurements in three locations: Lake Hoare, the Garwood Valley and at Cape Bernacci. Additional support included data processing and data archiving.
