Deformation structures at the margins of ice streams

Ice streams are fast moving regions within the large ice sheets of Greenland and Antarctica. Recent developments of high resolution ice sounding radar systems for deployment from an aircraft or on the ground allow a detailed view of internal structures associated with the particular stress and strai...

Description
Summary:Ice streams are fast moving regions within the large ice sheets of Greenland and Antarctica. Recent developments of high resolution ice sounding radar systems for deployment from an aircraft or on the ground allow a detailed view of internal structures associated with the particular stress and strain fields related to the particular flow fields across the margins between slow and fast moving ice. Exemplary data will be shown from the margins of the North-East Greenland ice stream which were obtained in association with the EASTGRIP icecore drilling project.
