Concordia Subglacial Lake is a subglacial lake located beneath an ice sheet {{convert|3850|m|ft|abbr=on}} to {{convert|4125|m|ft|abbr=on}} thick. It has a surface of about {{convert|800|km2|sqmi|abbr=on}} and is ~ {{convert|300|m|ft|abbr=on}} deep. The sloped surface of the water has an elevation from {{convert|623|m|ft|abbr=on}} to {{convert|898|m|ft|abbr=on}} below mean sea level. The elevation of the icecover, above Concordia Subglacial Lake is: {{convert|3227|m|ft|abbr=on}} m.a.s.l. It was first located in December 1999; the name derives from the nearby French-Italian Concordia Research Station.
