Antarctica land and seabed topography. Elevation is colour-coded from maximum depths (dark blue) to highest elevations (red). East Antarctica is on the right. This image was created by the Antarctic BedMachine mapping project. BedMachine uses satellite data on ice flow motion to estimate what lies between radar ice thickness data sets. Understanding the underlying topography helps predict rates of ice loss and sea level rise associated with climate change. | |
