Two major features appear in the Filchner Ice Shelf-Weddell Sea region (Behrendt, 1962J. A vast bank extends from the central part of the Ice Shelf far out into the sea. ) Almost the entire bank is less than 300 m in depth. Berkner Island is formed on a small portion of this bank "vhere decreasing "vater depth and increasing ice thickness combine to produce a region of grounded ice. On its eastern and southern sides the bank terlninates sharply in a trough over 1000 km in length. Throughout the length of this trough the water depth is greater than 1000 m; a maximum depth of more than 1700 m is reached near 82°S, 60 o W.
