Hinge-line migration of Petermann Gletscher, north Greenland, detected using satellite-radar interferometry

The synthetic-aperture radar-interferometry technique is used to detect the migration of the limit of tidal flexing, or hinge line, of the floating ice tongue of Petermann Gletscher, a major outlet glacier of north Greenland. The hinge line is detected automatically from differential interferograms...
