Layer echoes in polar ice sheets
Abstract A multitude of extensive layers have been observed by radio-echo soundings in Greenland. By comparison with the stable isotope profile from Camp Century it is found that layering in the lop of the ice has been formed in the period since the last glaciation. Radio-echo layers observed at gre...

Abstract A multitude of extensive layers have been observed by radio-echo soundings in Greenland.
