Thwaites Glacier ice surface speed change from January 2012 to January 2021
A map of changes in ice surface speed in metres/year for Thwaites Glacier, West Antarctica, between January 2012 and January 2021. Speeds based on feature tracking of satellite synthetic aperture radar data. The work was funded by NERC projects NE/P011365/1 and NE/S006605/1. : January 2012 speeds we...
