The Southern African Geophysical Association (SAGA) featured an engaging Monthly Talk titled “Active and Passive Seismic Investigations: Structural Glaciology of the Fimbulisen, Antarctica.”

Presented by Diego Quiros from the University of Cape Town, the session explored how active and passive seismic investigation techniques can be applied to studying the internal structure and behaviour of Antarctic ice formations.

Focusing on the Fimbulisen ice shelf, the presentation highlighted the important role of geophysical methods in glaciological research and understanding ice dynamics in polar environments.

This session demonstrated the versatility of seismic technologies beyond traditional exploration applications, reinforcing SAGA’s commitment to supporting diverse scientific research and expanding geophysical knowledge.
