…to help assess the health—the structural integrity—of the ice shelf. In 2014, Bromirski and colleagues deployed an array of broadband seismometers on the ice shelf surface to measure the amplitude and speed of these vibrations. McClure assisted the research team with the retrieval of the seismometers in the austral summer…
