Ice Thickness Measurements of the Southwest Greenland 2000-m Contour Line

thickness measurements along several flights in the southern part of Greenland. We used an improved coherent radar depth sounder operating at 150 MHz to collect these data. We obtained ice thickness data along flight lines for which no reliable thickness information was available. In this paper we p...

Description
Summary:thickness measurements along several flights in the southern part of Greenland. We used an improved coherent radar depth sounder operating at 150 MHz to collect these data. We obtained ice thickness data along flight lines for which no reliable thickness information was available. In this paper we present results from these experiments along a 2000-m contour line in the southwestern part of the Greenland.
