Hinge-line migration of Petermann Gletscher, north Greenland, detected using satellite-radar interferometry

Abstract The synthetic-aperture radar-interferometry technique is used to detect the migration of the limit of tidal flexing, or hinge line, of the floating ice longue of Peter-mann Gletscher, a major outlet glacier of north Greenland. The hinge line is detected automatically from differential inter...
