A multi-year assessment of the Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) signature of supraglacial lake evolution on the George VI ice shelf, Antarctic Peninsula.

Supraglacial lakes (SGLs) that form annually on the ice shelves fringing Antarctica exert a significant influence on the stability and mass balance of the entire ice sheet, yet their continent-wide extent and evolution is poorly constrained. This study aims to overcome the limitations of optical sat...
