1 380 Report JARE-.- +, -. / Radio echo sounding survey along the profile of the JARE-.- seismic exploration on the Mizuho Plateau, East Antarctica Masamitsu Takada +, Shigeru Toda,, Daisuke Kamiya -, Takeshi Matsushima. and Hiroki Miyamachi /,**- 0,/ ;,**- 2,0 Abstract: A seismic exploration was conducted in the austral summer of,**+,**, by the.-rd Japanese Antarctic Research Expedition (JARE-.-) on the Mizuho Plateau, East Antarctica. We carried out the radio echo sounding survey along the seismic line in order to estimate the distribution of bedrockaltitude.
