Vertical profile reconstruction with Pol-InSAR data of a subpolar glacier
The last decade has seen an increasing demand for accurate mapping and wide-coverage monitoring of glaciers and ice sheets in order to measure and predict their response to global climate change and their contribution to sea level rise. This in turn requires a more complete understanding of their pr...
