International collaboration is urgently needed for airborne surveys in Enderby Land to fill the largest RINGS data gap
Year: 2023
Type: report
Abstract: This is a preliminary planning and scoping paper that seeks to identify potential plans and solutions to support the RINGS project in Enderby Land, East Antarctica. Enderby Land is the largest data gap of bed topography in the coastal regions of the Antarctic Ice Sheet and it must be urgenly filled. The plan presented in this paper does not reflect any commitment or undertaking by National Antarctic Programs or those named in the paper. More detailed planning and collaborative discussions will be needed to then seek agreement on resource allocations and contributions.
