Greenland ice sheet data

Greenland borehole waterlevel and ice motion data from two sites in the ablation area of the ice sheet. Boreholes were drilled to the ice bed interface and instrumented with pressure sensors that froze in. GPS data were acquired with Trimble R9s. Surface weather data also included at one site. The t...

Description
Summary:Greenland borehole waterlevel and ice motion data from two sites in the ablation area of the ice sheet. Boreholes were drilled to the ice bed interface and instrumented with pressure sensors that froze in. GPS data were acquired with Trimble R9s. Surface weather data also included at one site. The two sites are nicknamed Gull and Foxx.
