Firn Temperatures from NW Greenland

Firn temperatures taken in the NW sector of the Greenland Ice Sheet in 2013. Temperatures were collected at locations where similar data was first observed by Carl Benson in 1952-55 (see Research Report 70 of the Snow Ice and Permafrost Research Establishment (SIPRE), Benson, 1962). These data show...
