An analysis of the errors in the calculation of ice discharge through flux gates. Application to Nunavut tidewater glaciers, Canada

Five 20-m deep firn cores were extracted and analyzed for density and stratigraphy, two full energy balance weather stations were deployed, equipped with 16 m long thermistor strings to measure firn temperature, and over 300 km of ground penetrating radar data were collected. Preliminary firn cores...
