Tidal motion, ice velocity and melt rate of Petermann Gletscher, Greenland, measured from radar interferometry

Over a floating glacier ice tongue or an ice shelf, the glacier motion measured by a single, repeat-pass, radar interferogram is difficult to analyze, because the long-term, steady motion of the ice is intermixed with its cyclic, downward motion induced by tidal forcing. Multiple interferograms and...
