High temporal resolution records of the velocity of Hansbreen, a tidewater glacier in Svalbard
Monitoring changes in glacial dynamics is essential for understanding the environmental response to accelerated climate warming in the Arctic. However, geodetic surveys in polar regions continue to present considerable challenges because of the harsh environmental conditions and the polar night. Thi...
