Abstract VLF surface-impedance measurements were made along four traverses on the Antarctic ice sheet in the vicinity of Casey base. Computer modelling of the surface-impedance data allowed ice-depth predictions to be made; predictions which are almost independent of ice temperature for ice depths less than 800 m. Results agree with ice-radar and other ice-depth data. Surface-impedance anomalies were observed close to moraines and crevasses in the ice sheet. The technique is fast and the instrumentation sufficiently portable for single-person operation.

AbstractThe effects on very low-frequency surface-impedence measurements of lateral variations commonly found in ice environments have been measured and modelled numerically using die quasi-static two-dimensional boundary-element method. Results indicate that surface-impedance measurements made in the vicinity of crevasses oriented perpendicular to the plane Of incidence, and those made in the vicinity of moraines and melt streams, can all show significant changes to the measured apparent resistivity. It is, therefore, misleading to use such measurements in the interpretation of ice depth.
