Instruments and Methods: Measurement of Ice Movement in Subglacial Cavities: A New Cavitometer Beneath the Glacier D’Argentière (Mt Blanc, France)
Abstract The study of subglacial movements taking place in regions of cavitation beneath the Glacier d’Argentière, has demonstrated the necessity for using several cavitometers. The very unusual conditions in which such apparatus is installed to measure simultaneously the velocity and the position o...
