Time-Dependent Intraglacier Structures

Using time-domain pulsed radar, the intrastructure of a typical temperate glacier has been studied. Certain features have exhibited a rapid change in structure, and cannot be explained by density or ice characteristics of a stable nature. It is believed these time-dependent structures are related to...

Description
Summary:Using time-domain pulsed radar, the intrastructure of a typical temperate glacier has been studied. Certain features have exhibited a rapid change in structure, and cannot be explained by density or ice characteristics of a stable nature. It is believed these time-dependent structures are related to the internal water system for glaciers.
