New data on Progress Lake (Larsemann Hills, East Antarctica): Recently discovered subglacial part of the basin
In this paper, we present new data on the structure of the basin of Progress Lake (Larsemann Hills, East Antarctica). Located close to major logistic facilities of the polar stations and known for regular outburst floods, this lake was an object of interest in terms of ensuring safety of logistics operations. First reconnaissance survey carried out to the west of the known boarder of the Progress Lake showed the presence of a subglacial cavity filled with water. Based on the results of detailed ground-penetrating radar survey, electro-thermal drilling, water level observations, echo-sounding survey, and underwater photography, we show that this cavity acts as a subglacial part of the Progress Lake. We present the main morphometrical characteristics of Progress Lake calculated according to the new data: total area (203 600 m2), volume (1 806 300 m3), average depth (8.9 m), maximum depth (42.3 m), length (1160 m), maximum width (330 m). We also present an updated map of the Progress Lake and hydrological data (water level changes, water temperature, salinity, ion composition). The presence of perennial ice cover above the western part of the lake basin is explained by the specific microclimatic conditions of the area.
期刊介绍:
Polar Science is an international, peer-reviewed quarterly journal. It is dedicated to publishing original research articles for sciences relating to the polar regions of the Earth and other planets. Polar Science aims to cover 15 disciplines which are listed below; they cover most aspects of physical sciences, geosciences and life sciences, together with engineering and social sciences. Articles should attract the interest of broad polar science communities, and not be limited to the interests of those who work under specific research subjects. Polar Science also has an Open Archive whereby published articles are made freely available from ScienceDirect after an embargo period of 24 months from the date of publication.
