Stan i współczesne zmiany systemów lodowcowych południowego Spitsbergenu w świetle badań metodami radarowymi
The book presents the interactions that take place in the glacial systems and defines the mechanisms that control these processes. The purpose of this book is to investigate how glacial systems react to changing climate. The conducted analysis applied a set of field studies from 2007-2014 carried ou...
