Kongsvegen is a well-studied surge-type glacier in the Kongsfjord area of northwest Svalbard. Long-term monitoring has shown that the ice surface velocity has been increasing for the past 4 years; presenting a unique opportunity to study the internal ice structure, basal conditions and thermal regim...
