Understanding and monitoring the changes occurring in the Earth's climate are of increasing interest to scientists, legislators and policy makers, environmentalists and to the wider-population. The Antarctic continent is particularly suitable for studies into climate change, as it is the major geographical region where the climate signature influences the production and storage of water and ice. The outlet glaciers and ice shelves are the most dynamic regions of Antarctica and as such can be expected to respond to variations in the climate signal sooner than the other regions. Unlike the glaciers, which may have response lags of hundreds or thousands of years, the ocean-ice interface of the ice shelves are sensitive to changes in sea level or ocean temperature, resulting in a much faster response times. If an accurate determination of change is to be made, it is of critical importance that baseline (and future) measurements of change and rate of change are of the highest accuracy and precision.
