(Ref: S.P.Burke & B.M.Buck, “The Synrams Ice Station”, IEEE/MTS Oceans 75 Conference in San Diego, CA, Sept. 1975). During the installation ice thickness data varied from 2.0 to 4.5m with an average of 3.0m. I suspect that that the average thickness now is more like 1m, it would be interesting to see some of their field data.
