Geological field surveys of the Lützow-Holm Bay, Prince Olav Coast, and Enderby Land were conducted by three geologists in the 63rd Japanese Antarctic Research Expedition (JARE-63) during the 2021-2022 austral summer season. Field parties were supported throughout the summer season by two main helicopters (CH-101) stationed on the icebreaker Shirase without a smaller secondary helicopter (AS350). This report summarizes field preparations and geological work and highlights several key points for future planning and research.
