Radar Thickness Measurements over the Southern Part of the Greenland Ice Sheet

摘要

We performed ice thickness measurements over the southern part of the Greenlandice sheet during June and July 1993. We used an airborne coherent radar depth sounder for these measurements. The radar was operated from a NASA P-3 aircraft equipped with GPS receivers. Radar data were collected in conjunction with laser altimeter and microwave altimeter measurements of ice surface elevation. This report provides radio echograms and thickness profiles from data collected during 1993.
