Map of ocean floor depth (bathymetry) on the Amundsen Sea continental shelf,looking north from the Getz Ice Shelf. Depth is colour-coded from shallow (red) to deep (purple). Black areas are data gaps. The deeper areas have were formed by the past flow of ice-streams. Understanding past ice-stream flow will help scientists predict future Antarctic ice sheet loss | |
