Terra Nova Bay (Ross Sea, Antarctica), characterized by a moltitude of ice tongues flowing from land to sea, represents an ideal study site for understanding the complex interaction between relative sea level variations and ice sheet dynamics during the Holocene. The DISGELI project, thanks to the combination of innovative technology and traditional methods for geomorphologic and stratigraphic analysis, aims to: i) reconstruct the local variations of the East Antarctic Ice Sheet after the Last Glacial Maximum; ii) provide a time constrain for the deglaciation processes along the coast; iii) reconstruct, with unprecedent detail, the relative sea level variations during Holocene in the Drygalski basin. The morpho-bathymetric and topographic data obtained through this study will be integrated using digital terrain models based on the analyses of key areas onland, where palaeo-coastlines and sea-level markers have been identified.

Here we present the snow pits collected along the international EAIIST project traverse, which took place in 2019-2020 Antarctic Campaign. We report the number of snow pits collected, the depth of the samplings and their geographic information.

Here we present the surface snow samples collected along the international EAIIST project traverse, which took place in 2019-2020 Antarctic Campaign. We report the number of surface samples (upper 10 cm and integrated 1m samples) collected and their geographic information.

During the XIX Italian Antarctic expedition (2003/04), one tephra layer has been sampled within the aim of the project "Antarctic meteorites" in northern Victoria Land. The investigated region is within Welcome Mountain SS 55-57/4 USGS sheet.

During the XIII Italian Antarctic expedition (1997/98), 5 tephra layers have been sampled within the aim of the project "Concentration of meteorites: identification, collection, study" in northern Victoria Land. The investigated region is within Freyberg Mountains SS 58-60/1 USGS sheet.

This dataset includes all the carbonaceous chondrites CV group collected during the Italian Antarctic Expeditions since 1997 in Victoria Land and now preserved at the repository of the Museo Nazionale dell’Antartide.

This dataset includes all the iron meteorites (achondrites) collected during the Italian Antarctic Expeditions since 1991 in Victoria Land and now preserved at the repository of the Museo Nazionale dell’Antartide.
