Sediments from the project “Geomorphological and glaciological mapping of Victoria Land"
During the XV and XVII Italian Antarctic expeditions (1999/2000, 2001/02), 23 glacial deposits have been sampled within the aim of the project "Geomorphological and glaciological mapping of Victoria Land" in northern and southern Victoria Land. The investigated regions are within Mount Joyce SS 55-57/16, Mount Melbourne SS 58-60/9 and Taylor Glacier ST 57-60/5 USGS sheets.
