5. Acknowledgments

5. Acknowledgments

Event K044 would like to thank the staff at Scott Base for their part in making the "Seris-A" traverse a success. Alex Pyne of the Antarctic Research Centre at Victoria University loaned the event GPS equipment and generously gave up his own time to introduce us to the system. Discussions on GPS techniques with Perry Gilbert (Dosli) were invaluable and we thank Barbara Littel and Larry Hotham of the USGS for providing GPS data from McMurdo. The Seris-A expedition was initiated and organised by Tim Stern at Victoria University, and it was he who arranged the financial support of the Internal Grants Committee, Victoria University. Ron Hackney's study in New Zealand is made possible by support through the New Zealand government Commonwealth Scholarship and Fellowship Plan. Eric Broughton and Workshop staff at Victoria University provided much assistance in preparing the scientific equipment for the field. Thanks to Ed Waddington from the University of Washington for the loan of a radar transmitter.
