a, An overview of radar data collected at Hercules Dome. be, Spectral analysis of local subglacial topography in the glacier highlands (c,d) and valley floors (b,e). Each Fourier-analysed panel (b, c, d, e) corresponds to different areas shown and labeled in the map view (a). Black solid lines in Fourier-analysed panels of each outlined domain denote wavelength (in metres), and black dashed lines indicate orientation (azimuth with 45° marking northwest–southeast features and 135° marking northeast–southwest features). Colours capture the power (decibels) of spectral energy relative to the direction of the survey.
