The Dragon

After investigating ice stream dynamics in the chromosome zone, the place where crevasses change direction as the glacier moves and causing them to to turn into thousands of Y chromosome figures, she entered the place known as the Dragon. The Dragon is the transition zone between the moving and stable ice, ti is also the only part of Antarctica not bounded by mountains. The Dragon tells us of the ice streams that show us the interactive role of the ice sheet in global change. It resembled a windblown channel of the ice from the air, but it was really a two mile-wide band of crevasses running forty miles down one side of the island. The dramatic landscape was more appealing to the author due to the fact that fewer than 20 people had ever seen it.
