Monitoring of ice sheet velocity is one of the key issues to glacier dynamics understanding. Although the surface displacements of glaciers can be monitored Global Positioning System (GPS), this process is difficult in Antarctica due to logistic operations. Two GPS campaigns were conducted during th...
