The Gauss party set up a magnetic observation 
station at Ile Kerguelen and then proceeded 
toward Antarctica. At about 90°E they found and 
named Emperor Wilhelm Land-now called Wilhelm 
II Coast. Between 91° and 92°E, south of the 
Antarctic Circle, the Gauss was frozen into the pack 
ice where she was forced to remain for over a year. 
During most of the time magnetic, geodetic, 
climatological, and tidal data were taken at stations 
established on the ice. In March 1902 Drygalski made 
an ascent in a captive balloon to extend his 
observations of the surrounding terrain. A sledging 
joumney was made to an apparently extinct volcano, 
which the party named Gaussberg. Glaciological 
studies were conducted on the mainland and geologic 
specimens were collected. Biological work included 
observations of birds and collection of marine fauna.
