Description
Summary:This data set contains radar sounder echo strength profiles from the SPRI 100 MHz ice penetrating radar instrument deployed over Severnaya Zemlya (SZ), Russian Arctic, in 1997 as well as ice thickness and related products generated from these data. The data were collected during survey flights between 9 and 24 April 1997 under funding from: U.K. Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) grants GR3/9958 and GST/02/2195; EU Environment Programme grants ENV4CT97-0490 and 0426; Alfred-Wegener-Institut, Germany; and Russian Fund for Fundamental Studies. Participants from the Scott Polar Research Institute (SPRI)/Bristol Glaciology Centre were J. A. Dowdeswell, M. R. Gorman and R. P. Bassford. The project was a collaboration between UK scientists and those from Russian institutions, principally the Institute of Geography at the Russian Academy of Sciences, Moscow (Drs A.F Glazovsky and Y.Y. Macheret). Dataset prepared for archive by J. A. Dowdeswell, T. J. Benham and F. D. W. Christie of SPRI, 2023. Total file ...
