This award is for support of a program to establish a long-term monitoring network of accumulation stakes at the South Pole. The scientific objectives are to determine the long-term history of the "undisturbed" net accumulation regime and to assess the "station effect" upon the spatial distribution and magnitude of net accumulation at the South Pole. Thirteen shallow ( 12m) cores will be collected to examine accumulation rate variability since 1955. The goal is to leave in place an optimally designed array of poles, the measurement of which can be incorporated into the routine scientific observation program at South Pole Station.

该奖项是为了支持一个计划，以建立在南极积累赌注的长期监测网络。 科学目标是确定“不受干扰的”净积累制度的长期历史，并评估对南极净积累的空间分布和幅度的“站效应”。 将收集13个浅层（12m）核心以检查自1955年以来的积累率变异性。目标是留下一系列最佳设计的杆，其测量可以将其纳入南极站的常规科学观察计划中。
