What reading level is Characteristics of Existing Glaciers book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Directly beneath the station stretched a submarine ridge which may perhaps have repre- sented a moraine. On the edge of this platform, the " Gauss " determined the same abrupt descent to consider- able depths which had before been found by the " Belgica " farther to the eastward. At points quite near each other, the " Gauss " determined depths of 241 and 2890 metres, and at another place of 382 and 1103 metres.^^ Unlike Arctowski, who assumed a subsidence of the platform to account for its unus...ual depth, Philippi has interpreted this as evidence that the platform was planed down by the ice from the usual depth of about 100 fathoms when the ice front extended to and beyond the border of the platform.
He points out that the general effect of the retirement of an ice sheet is to induce elevation, rather than subsidence.
The Zone of Sea and Pack Ice. — The sea ice of the South Polar region encircles the Antarctic continent with outlines roughly parallel to its borders. Sea ice is due to the freezing of the surface of the sea during the winter months.
