Spatially and temporally continuous reconstruction of Antarctic Amundsen Sea sector ice sheet surface velocities: 1996-2018
Spatially and temporally continuous reconstruction of ice sheet surface velocities for the Amundson Sea Sector of the Antarctica. The reconstruction is derived from the synthesis of annual published InSAR (R14: Rignot et al. 2014) and optical (G18: Gardner et al., 2018 & Gardner et al., 2022) su...
