Changes in atmospheric water content associated with an unusual high snowfall during June 2004 at Maitri station (Schirmacher Oasis, East Antarctica) and the role of South West Indian ridge geodynamics
Abstract:We study changes in the atmospheric water vapour associated with the unusual snowfall during June 2004 polar night at the Indian Antarctica station Maitri (MAIT), located *70 km inland of the East Antarctic north coast. The GPS-derived Zenith Total Delay data for the 2004 polar night are used to evaluate the atmospheric water content at four GPS locations along the northern margin of East Antarctica. Stations Maitri and Syowa (SYOG) showed significant increase in atmospheric water vapour from GPS day 162 (10 J… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
