The crustal structure of the Transantarctic Mountains (TAM)                     reflects significant details concerning the interaction and                     tectonic histories of East and West Antarctica.  Yet, relatively                little is known about the lithospheric structure of the TAM.                    Strong constraints on the lithospheric structure beneath the TAM                are needed to discriminate between various models put forth to                  explain the evolution of TAM uplift.  This investigation will use               a land-based digital seismic recording array at two location in                 the TAM to obtain two densely recorded seismic profiles across                  the TAM Front near Terra Nova Bay and in the Wright Valley.  The                Bundesanstalt fur Geowissenschaften, Federal Republic of Germany,               will provide large marine airgun seismic sources in conjunction                 with the GANOVEX-V Expedition during the 1988/89 field season.                  Seismic waveform modeling will be used in conjunction with array                processing techniques to derive maximum constraints on TAM                      lithospheric velocity structure.  Seismic results will be                       integrated with geopotential field data and geochemical data to                 determine the most appropriate models of TAM structure,                         composition, and tectonic evolution.
