Abstract. We use one day Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) interferograms from data of the Earth Remote Sensing Satellites ERS-1 and ERS-2 to study ice flow and uplift of two surface depressions within the Vatnajökull ice cap, Iceland. The ice cauldrons are created by melting at subglacial geothermal...
