Summary
Abstract: This project examines the morphology, ice motion velocity and mass balance of
Lambert Glacier, Antarctica using state-of-the-art remote sensing and GIS
techniques. Lambert Glacier is the largest ice stream in the world. Because of
its size, it plays a fundamental role in the study of glacial dynamics and mass
budget in response to present and future climate changes. Along ... View entire text
