Forlagsbeskrivelse af Antarctica & Tierra del Fuego
Antarctica remains one of the most fascinating places on earth. It is possible to visit the continent during the ‘summer’ months of January/February, by ship. This 5th edition has Antarctica on one side and Tierra del Fuego on the other, since most ships heading across the Drake Passage originate in Ushuaia, Argentina. This edition is also unique in that we portray loss of permanent ice since the last edition. Global warming is melting the ice cover quite quickly, both visibly above the surface and by warmer ocean currents melting the underside of ice shelves. This should cause a carving off of a huge piece of ice in the near future that is about the size of Prince Edward Island in Canada. Scale 1:7 mill.
