Geodetic monitoring of isostatic rebound near the Lambert Glacier
Entry ID:
GEMIR_GPS_ANU
Summary
Abstract:
The present-day observed change in sea level is the sum of several factors, including the continuing readjustment of the crust to the past redistribution of the surface ice-water load and any present-day melting of the Antarctic ice sheet. Constraints can be provided on both of these contributions by measuring the magnitude of the crustal rebound using the Global Positioning System. By combining ...

Taken from the 2008-2009 Progress Report:
Variations to work plan or objectives: The project has now finished. The equipment have been removed from the sites that the field party were able to visit. However, we must gain access to Komsomolskiy Peak in order to remove the equipment that is there. Field work: We did not send a field party in the 2008/09 season. The GA ... ![]()
Access Constraints
The full GPS dataset will be available to the general public after 5 year embargo period beginning January 12, 1998.
Currently 1998-2002 data are available. GPS Data may be made available before this time under special arrangements. Diagnostic data available now from the url given below. The data have been gzipped and hatanaka compressed. Un-gzipping the files will convert them to readable ascii files.
