Stake surface accumulation measurements at Filchnner Ice Shelf between December 2015/January 2016 and December 2016

Surface accumulation was measured at 137 locations at the Filchner Ice Shelf, Antarctica between December 2015/January 2016 and December 2016. Accumulation is the measured change in height above ground level of bamboo poles installed in December 2015/January 2016 and changes were measured in Decembe...

Description
Summary:Surface accumulation was measured at 137 locations at the Filchner Ice Shelf, Antarctica between December 2015/January 2016 and December 2016. Accumulation is the measured change in height above ground level of bamboo poles installed in December 2015/January 2016 and changes were measured in December 2016. At each location, changes in height above ground level were measured at two bamboo poles. The given height change is the average value of both poles and the range between both measurements is indicated by the second value. A positive change in height means accumulation.
