Global Positioning System Interferometric Reflectometry (GPS-IR) is a relatively new technique which uses reflected GPS signals to measure surface elevation changes to study frozen ground dynamics. At present, more than 200 GPS stations are in continuous operation in the Northern Hemisphere permafro...
