«The degree of pollution
in each embayment is very different and that has to do with a number of different factors — levels of development, whether there's agriculture or urbanization nearby.»

the south - bound expedition had cleared that vast plain of floating ice which flows down from the great mountains of the interior and covers the southern part of Ross Sea throughout an area above 20,000 square miles with an ice sheet approximately 800 feet
in thickness, and had begun to climb the heights which form the mountainous
embayment at the head of Ross Sea.

in the Amundsen Sea
embayment (ASE), where it is confirmed as being localized on the fast - flowing glaciers and their tributaries (Fig. 3 [below].
The shelf has three parts, called Larsen A, B, and C,
in separate
embayments along the east coast of the Antarctic Peninsula.
We infer that the previously unstudied WAP
embayments are important foraging areas for whales during autumn and, furthermore, that meso - scale variation
in the distribution of whales and their prey are important features of this system.
There are many ice shelves but the biggest (about the size of France) is the Ross Ice Shelf, tucked into a deep
embayment in West Antarctica.

a switch from grounded ice, or ice shelves, to open waters
in the Ross
embayment when planetary temperatures were up to approx 3 °C warmer than today and atmospheric CO2 concentration was as high as approx 400 p.p.m.v.»
Large floating ice shelves had formed
in the Ross Sea and Weddell Sea marine
embayments after WAIS had collapsed
in those sectors after the LGM, and I had concluded that these ice shelves, being confined and pinned at places to the sea floor, were now buttressing these sectors of WAIS, preventing further collapse.
There was a paper
in Science several years back whose conclusion was that once glaciers left their terminal moraine grounding lines behind, the
embayment left behind would freshen and cool with meltwater and provide a negative feedback to more melting.
However, upon inspecting the large map of Antarctica published by the American Geographical Society
in 1970, George Denton and I noticed that one - third of the remaining WAIS were drained by two large ice streams that entered Pine Island Bay, an ice - free
embayment in the Amundsen Sea sector.
Ice shelf - A floating slab of ice of considerable thickness extending from the coast (usually of great horizontal extent with a level or gently sloping surface), often filling
embayments in the coastline of the ice sheets.

They based their findings on analysis of the chemical isotopes locked
in ancient ice from the Weddell Sea
embayment, and the evidence suggests that
in the past, when polar waters became more stratified, the ice sheets melted much more quickly.
The pace and magnitude of the changes observed
in this region match the expectation that Amundsen Sea
