SPACE AND TIME TOPOGRAPHIC SIGNATURES OF ICE SHEET

Altimetry is probably one of the most powerful tools for the observation of ice sheets. The topography is one of the pertinent parameters related to the processes acting on ice sheets. Because it is a free surface, it description strongly helps in ice modelling. From the global scale to the km-scale...
