| Summary: | The paper is concerned with the monitoring of glaciers, icebergs, and ice shelves by the use of synthetic aperture radar, buried electromagnetic transponders, and surface data collection platforms. Procedures for determining surface and internal glacial flow vectors and for tracking individual icebergs are described. The design, emplacement, and discrimination of radar targets are considered. |
