Lake Hoare, Antarctica, 1998
Photograph by Maria Stenzel

Antarctica’s perennially ice-covered Lake Hoare bears the scars of sand and dirt that have worked their way from the surface down into the ice. Soil blows onto the lake from the nearby dry valley, warms in the sun, and melts downward, leaving a bubble column in its trail.

Hoare湖，南极，1998

参考翻译：（过家家翻译）

南极洲的Hoare湖终年结冰，地面的沙子和灰土融进了冰里，留下了道道痕迹。这些沙土是从附近的干燥的峡谷里吹出来的，阳光晒热了它们，融下去以后，沙土经过的地方就留下了一条条的气泡柱子。
（图文为《国家地理》1998年十月“南极沙漠中永恒的峡谷”而作，未发表）
