See Readme file . A dual frequency (4.2 MHz, and 8.4 MHz) Ground Penetrating Radar unit was operated at several locations around the AM01 borehole to try to detect the meteoric-marine ice interface. Data obtained was often ambiguous, and non-reproducible even over short time-space scales. Data has been extracted to postscript files which are effectively screenshots of the TEK storage CRO used to record readings. The data are overall of poor quality. AM01 borehole drilled January 2002. Data collected in series of files over a period of 2 days after completion of borehole. Consult Readme file for detail of data files and formats.
