description From November 12, 1975 to January 24, 1976 an oversnow traverse to the Yamato Mountains was conducted by a seven-man party of the 16th Japanese Antarctic Research Expedition for geological and geomorphological surveys, topographic surveying, search for the Yamato meteorites, and physiological investigation. Furthermore a strain grid was set up around A003 control point near Motoi Nunatak (A001 control point=No. 214) for mechanism of meteorites concentration in the Meteorite Ice Field. A brief description of the traverse and the grid, hexagonal form each side being about 800 m, is given here.
