On the perimeter of the basin, outcrops of the Frontier Formation were examined and described during the years 1972-1975. Invertebrate fossils were collected from those outcrops during the years 1972-1996, in places with the assistance of other earth scientists\n(see Acknowledgments).\nThe Frontier Formation in the Wind River Basin, ranging in thickness from 650 to 1,000 ft thick, consists mainly of sandstone, siltstone, shale, and bentonite of early Late Cretaceous age. The Frontier conformably overlies the Mowry Shale and is conformably overlain by the Cody Shale. A basal unit of the Cody, a sequence of marine noncalcareous shale, is named the Sage Breaks Member. The Frontier consists of two or three members, separated by disconformities; in ascending order, the Belle Fourche, Emigrant Gap, and Wall Creek. At several localities, the Emigrant Gap Member is missing. The formation was deposited mainly in marine environments, although nonmarine beds are conspicuous in the western part of the basin. Strata of the Frontier record a succession of marine regressions and transgressions. Molluscan fossils from the marine beds were identified and related to the chronostratigraphic chart shown in figure 2. The absolute ages on the chart were determined and supplied by J.D. Obradovich (Cobban and others, 2006). In this region, the Belle Fourche is of Cenomanian age, the Emigrant Gap is of early middle Turonian age, and the Wall Creek is of late Turonian and early Coniacian ages.\nThe main purpose of this report is to present biostratigraphic information from studies of the Frontier Formation in the Wind River Basin that could be useful for future stratigraphic investigations of the formation throughout Wyoming. Locations of outcrop sections and associated fossil collections are depicted on accompanying maps and aerial photographs. Graphic descriptions of strata in the outcrops and identifications of fossils from nearby localities also are presented. Those fossils named on the graphic sections commonly have the most restricted time-spans. Fossils collected near the outcrops studied are not always named on the enclosed graphic sections because (1) the specimens are less useful for dating the enclosing beds, (2) the specimens are duplicates, or (3) the specimens could not be related to specific strata in the sections. The names, locations, and members of the outcrop sections and the approximate ages of the constituent strata are summarized in table 1.\nThe index maps used to show locations of outcrop sections and fossil collections are from scanned versions of U.S. Geological Survey topographic maps of various scales and were obtained from TerraServer®. The portion of each map used depended on the areal distribution of the localities involved. The named quadrangles used for locality descriptions, however, all refer to 7½-minute, 1:24,000-scale quadrangles (for example, “Alcova”).

An example of such a difficulty is the separation of&nbsp;desorption&nbsp;and dissolution processes in releasing contaminants from sediments to groundwaters; very few studies are found in the literature that attempt to quantify contaminant release by these two processes. In this study, the results from several extraction techniques, isotopic exchange experiments, and published spectroscopic studies were combined to estimate the contributions of desorption and dissolution to U(VI) release from contaminated sediments collected from the vadose zone beneath former&nbsp;waste disposal&nbsp;ponds in the Hanford 300-Area (Washington State).&nbsp;Vertical profiles&nbsp;of sediments were collected at four locations from secondary pond surfaces down to, and slightly below, the&nbsp;water table. In three of the four profiles,&nbsp;uraniumconcentration gradients were observed in the sediments, with the highest U concentrations at the top of the profile. One of the vertical profiles contained sediments with U concentrations up to 4.2×10</span><sup>−7</sup><span>&nbsp;</span><span>mol</span><span>&nbsp;</span><span>g</span><sup>−1</sup><span>&nbsp;(100</span><span>&nbsp;</span><span>ppm). U(VI) release to artificial groundwater solutions (AGWs) and extracts from these high-U concentration sediments occurred primarily from dissolution of precipitated U(VI) minerals, including the mineral metatorbernite, [Cu(UO</span><sub>2</sub><span>PO</span><sub>4</sub><span>)</span><sub>2</sub><span>·8H</span><sub>2</sub><span>O]. At the bottom of this profile, beneath the water table, and in all three of the other profiles, U concentrations were &lt;5.88×10</span><sup>−8</sup><span>&nbsp;</span><span>mol</span><span>&nbsp;</span><span>g</span><sup>−1</sup><span>&nbsp;(14</span><span>&nbsp;</span><span>ppm), and U(VI) release to AGWs occurred primarily due to desorption of U(VI). When reacted in batch experiments with AGWs with compositions representative of the range of chemical conditions in the underlying&nbsp;aquifer, all samples released U(VI) at concentrations greater than regulatory limits within few hours. A semi-mechanistic surface&nbsp;complexation&nbsp;model was developed to describe U(VI)&nbsp;adsorption&nbsp;on sediments collected from near the water table, as a function of pH,&nbsp;alkalinity, and Ca and U(VI) concentrations, using ranges in these variables relevant to groundwater conditions in the aquifer. Dilute (bi)carbonate solution extractions and uranium isotopic exchange methods were capable of estimating adsorbed U(VI) in samples where U(VI) release was predominantly due to U(VI) desorption; these techniques were not effective at estimating adsorbed U(VI) where U(VI) release was affected by dissolution of U(VI) minerals. The combination of extraction and isotopic exchange results, spectroscopic studies, and surface complexation modeling allow an adequate understanding for the development of a geochemical conceptual model for U(VI) release to the aquifer. The overall approach has generic value for evaluating the potential for release of metals and&nbsp;radionuclides&nbsp;from sediments that contain both precipitated and adsorbed contaminant speciation.</span></p>","largerWorkType":{"id":4,"text":"Book"},"largerWorkTitle":"Developments in earth and environmental sciences","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":15,"text":"Monograph"},"language":"English","publisher":"Elsevier","doi":"10.1016/S1571-9197(07)07014-0","usgsCitation":"Bond, D.L., Davis, J., and Zachara, J.M., 2007, Uranium(VI) release from contaminated vadose zone sediments: Estimation of potential contributions from dissolution and desorption, chap. 14 <i>of</i> Developments in earth and environmental sciences, v. 7, p. 375-416, https://doi.org/10.1016/S1571-9197(07)07014-0.","productDescription":"42 p.","startPage":"375","endPage":"416","costCenters":[{"id":589,"text":"Toxic Substances Hydrology Program","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":357046,"rank":1,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"7","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"5b98c09ce4b0702d0e845c2f","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Bond, Deborah L.","contributorId":207537,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Bond","given":"Deborah","email":"","middleInitial":"L.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":744114,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Davis, James A.","contributorId":69289,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Davis","given":"James A.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":744115,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Zachara, John M.","contributorId":7421,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Zachara","given":"John","email":"","middleInitial":"M.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":744116,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3}]}}

Multibeam sonar imagery of subglacial, ice-marginal and glaciomarine landforms on German Bank, Scotian Shelf, provides evidence of the pattern of glacial-dynamic events in the eastern Gulf of Maine. Northwest-southeast trending drumlins and megaflutes dominate northern German Bank. On southern German Bank, megaflutes of thin glacial deposits create a distinct northwest-southeast grain. Lobate regional moraines (>10km long) are concave to the northwest, up-ice direction and strike southwest-northeast, normal to the direction of ice flow. Ubiquitous, overlying De Geer moraines (<10 km long) also strike southwest-northeast. The mapped pattern of moraines implies that, shortly after the last maximum glaciation, the tidewater ice sheet began to retreat north from German Bank, forming De Geer moraines at the grounding line with at least one glacial re-advance during the general retreat.

The Mesaverde Formation \nspans the time during which the Upper Cretaceous seaway \nretreated eastward out of central Wyoming in Campanian time \nand the initial stages of the Lewis transgression in earliest \nMaastrichtian time. This retreat stalled for a considerable \nperiod of time during deposition of the lower part of the \nMesaverde, creating a thick buildup of marginal marine \nsandstones and coaly coastal plain deposits across the western \npart of the basin. \nThe Lewis sea transgressed into the northeast part of \nWind River Basin, beginning in early Maastrichtian time \nduring deposition of the Teapot Sandstone Member of the \nMesaverde Formation. The Meeteetse Formation, which \noverlies the Teapot, was deposited in a poorly-drained coastal \nplain setting southwest of the Lewis seaway. The Lewis \nseaway, at maximum transgression, covered much of the \nnortheast half of the Wind River Basin area but was clearly \ndeflected around the present site of the Wind River Range, \nsouthwest of the basin, providing the first direct evidence of \nLaramide uplift on that range. \nUplift of the Wind River Range continued during \ndeposition of the overlying Maastrichtian Lance Formation. \nThe Granite Mountains south of the basin also became a \npositive feature during this time. A rapidly subsiding trough \nduring the Maastrichtian time formed near the presentday trough of the Wind River Basin in which more than \n6,000 feet of Lance was deposited. The development of this \ntrough appears to have begun before the adjacent Owl Creek \nMountains to the north started to rise; however, a muddy \nfacies in the upper part of Lance in the deep subsurface, just to \nthe south, might be interpreted to indicate that the Cretaceous \nCody Shale was being eroded off a rising Owl Creek \nMountains in latest Cretaceous time. \nThe Paleocene Fort Union Formation unconformably \noverlies older units but with only slight angular discordance \naround much of the margins of the Wind River Basin. Pre-Fort Union erosion was most pronounced toward the Wind \nRiver Range to the southwest, where the Fort Union ultimately \noverlies strata as old as the upper part of the Cretaceous Cody \nShale. The unconformity appears to die out toward the basin \ncenter. Coal-forming mires developed throughout the western \npart of the basin near the beginning of the Paleocene. River \nsystems entering the basin from the Wind River Range to the \nsouthwest and the Granite Mountains to the south produced \nareas of sandy fluvial deposition along mountain fronts. A \nmajor river system appears to have entered the basin from \nabout the same spot along the Wind River Range throughout \nmuch of the Paleocene, probably because it became incised \nand could not migrate laterally. The muddy floodplain \nfacies that developed along the deep basin trough during \nlatest Cretaceous time, expanded during the early part of the \nPaleocene. Coal-forming mires that characterize part of the \nlower Fort Union Formation reached maximum extent near \nthe beginning of the late Paleocene and just prior to the initial \ntransgression of Lake Waltman. \nFrom the time of initial flooding, Lake Waltman \nexpanded rapidly, drowning the coal-forming mires in \nthe central part of the basin and spreading to near basin \nmargins. Outcrop studies along the south margin of the basin \ndocument that once maximum transgression was reached, the \nlake was rapidly pushed basinward and replaced by fluvial \nenvironments.","largerWorkType":{"id":18,"text":"Report"},"largerWorkTitle":"Petroleum systems and geologic assessment of oil and gas resources in the Wind River Basin Province, Wyoming (Data Series 69-J)","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":5,"text":"USGS Numbered Series"},"language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey","publisherLocation":"Reston, VA","doi":"10.3133/ds69J10","collaboration":"This report is Chapter 10 in <i>Petroleum systems and geologic assessment of oil and gas resources in the Wind River Basin Province, Wyoming</i>.

The flat terrain that flood lavas produce has led to the term “plateau volcanism” to be used as a synonym for flood volcanism. In addition, the classic erosion pattern of flood lavas leaves a series of topographic steps. Thus many flood basalt provinces are known as “traps” from the Scandinavian word for steps. Plateau volcanism transitions to “plains” volcanism when low shields become common (Greeley and King, 1977). It is not surprising that these large-volume eruptions are usually composed of the most common of volcanic rocks: basalt. Thus, the term “flood basalt” is often used interchangeably with “flood volcanism.” However, there can be interesting and significant compositional variability within flood “basalt” provinces. The most general term to describe all large-volume volcanism is “Large Igneous Province” (LIP) (e.g., Coffin and Eldholm, 1994).</p><p>LIPs represent a major geologic event with significant repercussions on the interior of a planetary body. The extraction of such large volumes of magma can alter the thermal state of the mantle, indicate major changes in the convection patterns within the mantle, and lead to geochemical evolution of the mantle on a regional scale (e.g., Coffin and Eldholm, 1994 and references therein).

The bedrock high appears to be at least partially draped in sediment cover, with a \nconcentrated area of weak, dilatant till flanking one edge. This dilatant till is further dispersed along our profile, \nthough it does not possess enough continuity to maintain streaming ice conditions.

Areas affected by mass movements range in size from less than 9 km2 to greater than 15,200 km2 and reach measured thicknesses of up to 70 m. Failures are seen to originate on either the open-slope or in submarine canyons. Slope-sourced failures are larger than canyonsourced failures, suggesting they have a higher potential for tsunami generation although the volume of material displaced during individual failure events still needs to be refined. The slope-sourced failures are most common offshore of the northern, glaciated part of the coast, but others are found downslope of shelf-edge deltas and near salt diapirs, suggesting that several geological conditions control their distribution.</p>","largerWorkType":{"id":4,"text":"Book"},"largerWorkTitle":"Submarine mass movements and their consequences","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":4,"text":"Other Government Series"},"language":"English","publisher":"Springer","doi":"10.1007/978-1-4020-6512-5_41","isbn":"978-1-4020-6512-5","usgsCitation":"Chaytor, J., Twichell, D., ten Brink, U., Buczkowski, B., and Andrews, B., 2007, Revisiting submarine mass movements along the U.S. Atlantic Continental Margin: Implications for tsunami hazards, chap. <i>of</i> Submarine mass movements and their consequences, v. 27, p. 395-403, https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4020-6512-5_41.","productDescription":"9 p.","startPage":"395","endPage":"403","costCenters":[{"id":678,"text":"Woods Hole Coastal and Marine Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":292175,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","otherGeospatial":"Atlantic Ocean","geographicExtents":"{ \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\", \"features\": [ { \"type\": \"Feature\", \"properties\": {}, \"geometry\": { \"type\": \"Polygon\", \"coordinates\": [ [ [ -76.0,30.0 ], [ -76.0,42.0 ], [ -68.0,42.0 ], [ -68.0,30.0 ], [ -76.0,30.0 ] ] ] } } ] }","volume":"27","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"53edcd4fe4b0f61b386d245b","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Chaytor, J.D.","contributorId":80936,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Chaytor","given":"J.D.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":498150,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Twichell, D.C.","contributorId":84304,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Twichell","given":"D.C.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":498152,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"ten Brink, Uri S. 0000-0001-6858-3001 utenbrink@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-6858-3001","contributorId":127560,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"ten Brink","given":"Uri S.","email":"utenbrink@usgs.gov","affiliations":[{"id":186,"text":"Coastal and Marine Geology Program","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":678,"text":"Woods Hole Coastal and Marine Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":false,"id":498151,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Buczkowski, B.J.","contributorId":30918,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Buczkowski","given":"B.J.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":498149,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Andrews, B.D.","contributorId":87737,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Andrews","given":"B.D.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":498153,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5}]}}

The processes associated with the Yellowstone hotspot are volcanism, faulting, and uplift and are observed in the geology at the surface. We attribute the driving forces responsible for the northeastward progression of these processes to a thermal plume rising through the Earth&rsquo;s mantle into the base of the southwest-moving North American plate. This progression began 16 million years ago (Ma) near the Nevada-Oregon border and arrived at Yellowstone about 2 Ma. Before arrival of the hotspot, an older landscape existed, particularly mountains created during the Laramide orogeny about 70&ndash;50 Ma and volcanic terrain formed by Absaroka andesitic volcanism mostly between 50&ndash;45 Ma. These landscapes were more muted than the present, hotspot-modified landscape because the Laramide-age mountains had worn down and an erosion surface of low relief had developed on the Absaroka volcanic terrain.</p>\n<p>The Yellowstone Plateau was built by hotspot volcanism of rhyolitic lavas and caldera-forming rhyolite tuffs (ignimbrites). Streams eroding back into the edges of this plateau have created scenic waterfalls and canyons such as the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone and Lewis Canyon. Rhyolite is poor in plant nutrients and forms sandy, well-drained soils that support the monotonous, fire-adapted lodgepole pine forests of the Yellowstone Plateau. Non-rhyolitic rocks surround this plateau and sustain more varied vegetation, including spruce, fir, and whitebark pine forests broken by grassy meadows. Heat from the hotspot rises upward and drives Yellowstone&rsquo;s famed geysers, hot springs, and mudpots. These thermal waters are home to specialized, primitive ecosystems, rich in algae and bacteria. The rock alteration associated with hydrothermal systems creates the bright colors of Yellowstone&rsquo;s Grand Canyon.</p>\n<p>Basin-and-range-style faulting has accompanied migration of the hotspot to Yellowstone and formed the linear mountains and valleys that occur north and south of the hotspot track, which is the present-day eastern Snake River Plain. High rates of basin-and-range faulting occurred adjacent to the migrating Yellowstone hotspot, creating distinctive landscapes within the GYE such as the Teton Range/Jackson Hole, with characteristic rugged, forested ranges and adjacent flat-floored grassy valleys. The difference in altitude between the mountains and valleys provides a topographic gradient in which vegetation maturation advances with altitude; animal-migration patterns also follow this trend. The valleys provide natural meadows, agricultural land, town sites, and corridors for roads.</p>\n<p>Uplift of the GYE by as much as 1 km (3,000 ft) during the last 5 million years has resulted in ongoing erosion of deep, steep-walled valleys. Many prominent ecological characteristics of Yellowstone derive from this hotspot-induced uplift, including the moderate- to high- altitude terrain and associated cool temperatures and deep snowfall.</p>\n<p>Modern and Pleistocene climate and associated vegetation patterns strongly relate to the topography created by the hotspot and its track along the eastern Snake River Plain. Winter air masses from the moist northern Pacific Ocean traverse the topographic low of the Snake River Plain to where orographic rise onto the Yellowstone Plateau and adjacent mountains produces deep snow. A winter precipitation shadow forms on the lee (eastern) sides of the GYE. During Pleistocene glacial times, this moisture conduit provided by the hotspot-track-produced ice-age glaciers that covered the core of the present GYE. These glaciers sculpted bedrock and produced glacial moraines that are both forested and unforested, sand and gravel of ice-marginal streams and outwash gravels that are commonly covered with sagebrush-grassland, and silty lake sediments that are commonly covered by lush grassland such as Hayden Valley.</p>\n<p>The effects of the Yellowstone hotspot also profoundly shaped the human history in the GYE. Uplift associated with the hotspot elevates the GYE to form the Continental Divide, and streams drain radially outward like spokes from a hub. Inhabitants of the GYE 12,000&ndash;10,000 years ago, as well as more recent inhabitants, followed the seasonal green-up of plants and migrating animals up into the mountain areas. During European immigration, people settled around Yellowstone in the lower parts of the drainages and established roads, irrigation systems, and cultural associations. The core Yellowstone highland is too harsh for agriculture and inhospitable to people in the winter. Beyond this core, urban and rural communities exist in valleys and are separated by upland areas. The partitioning inhibits any physical connection of communities, which in turn complicates pursuit of common interests across the whole GYE.

In order to protect coastal populations and resources, a detailed understanding of the physical setting and of the processes responsible for change is required. A sustained program of mapping coastal areas provides a means to establish baseline conditions, document change, and, in conjunction with models of physical processes, predict future behavior. Recent advances in mapping technology, including airborne lidars and hyperspectral imagers, allow for the rapid collection of high-resolution elevation data and land use information on a national scale. These rich data sets are critical to evaluating risk associated with coastal hazards, such as flooding during extreme storms. For example, coastal elevation data is a fundamental parameter in storm surge models that predict where flooding will occur, and land use maps serve as the foundation of assessments that identify the resources and populations that are most vulnerable. A comprehensive, national coastal mapping plan that is designed to collect, manage, and distribute these data, as well as to take advantage of recent progress in mapping technology, will provide a wealth of information for studying the processes of physical change, for determining areas vulnerable to coastal hazards, and for protecting and managing our coastal communities and resources.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Ingenta Connect","doi":"10.4031/002533206787353241","usgsCitation":"Stockdon, H.F., Lillycrop, J.W., Howd, P.A., and Wozencraft, J.M., 2007,

Like their counterparts on the surface, subsurface ecosystems are characterized by a high degree of microbiological diversity, they possess trophic structure, and they exhibit material cycling and energy transfer. Members of such ecosystems typically possess structural, physiological, or reproductive adaptations that allow them to disperse and survive in such habitats. Current studies argue that microbial activities influence the geochemical processes in both landfills and subsurface environments and that the altered geochemistry, in turn, influences the selection of microorganisms proliferating in the habitat. However, while microbial activity may often be limited by the availability of electron donors in uncontaminated aquifer systems, this is rarely the case with landfills. Sections in this chapter provide investigators with a greater understanding of the experimental approaches needed to study the microbiology of the terrestrial subsurface and an appreciation of interpretational limits imposed by the existing methodologies. The hope is that further study of subsurface microorganisms will provide insights into the process of microbial evolution and possibly into the origins of life itself.</span></p>","largerWorkType":{"id":4,"text":"Book"},"largerWorkTitle":"Manual of environmental microbiology","language":"English","publisher":"ASM Press","publisherLocation":"Washington, D.C.","doi":"10.1128/9781555815882.ch65","usgsCitation":"Harvey, R.W., Suflita, J.M., McInerney, M.K., and Mills, A., 2007, Overview of issues in subsurface and landfill microbiology, chap. 65 <i>of</i> Manual of environmental microbiology, p. 795-798, https://doi.org/10.1128/9781555815882.ch65.","productDescription":"4 p.","startPage":"795","endPage":"798","costCenters":[{"id":589,"text":"Toxic Substances Hydrology Program","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":357072,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"edition":"3","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2007-05-14","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"5b98c09de4b0702d0e845c33","contributors":{"editors":[{"text":"Hurst, C.

Metamorphic data acquired from the Pan-African orogen of central Dronning Maud Land (cDML) are compared with data from northern Mozambique. The metamorphic rocks of cDML are characterised by Opx±Grt-bearing gneisses and Sil+Kfs-bearing metapelites which indicate medium-P granulite-facies metamorphism. Peak conditions, which are estimated to 800-900ºC at pressures up to 1.0 GPa, were followed by near-isothermal decompression during late Pan-African extension and exhumation. Granulite-facies lithologies are widespread in northern Mozambique, and Grt+Cpx-bearing assemblages show that high-P granulite-facies conditions with PT reaching 1.55 GPa and 900ºC were reached during the Pan-African orogeny. Garnet is replaced by symplectites of Pl+Opx+Mag indicating isothermal decompression, and the subsequent formation of Pl+amphibole-coronas suggests cooling into amphibolite facies. It is concluded that high-T metamorphism was pervasive in EAAO in Late Neoproterozoic/Early Paleozoic time, strongly overprinting evidences of earlier metamorphic assemblages.","largerWorkType":{"id":18,"text":"Report"},"largerWorkTitle":"Antarctica: A Keystone in a Changing World--Online Proceedings for the Tenth International Symposium on Antarctic Earth Sciences.
