The dataset consists of raw data from autonomous phase-sensitive radar (ApRES) measurements. The ApRES was operated with two broadband frame antennas at the Ekström Ice Shelf since April 2020 with one measurement every hour. These Lagrangian measurements allow the estimation of basal melt rates base...
