Ice surface motion was recorded by five dual-frequency Leica SR520 GPS receivers deployed on poles drilled 2 m into the ice surface, within 700 m of Moulin L41A at 66.97N -49.27E. GPS data were post-processed kinematically (King, 2004, http://dx.doi.org/10.3189/172756504781829747) with Track v.1.27...
