Summary
Abstract: The aim of the radar studies was to map the snow land ice layering along the traverse route, and to map basal conditions by sub glacial lakes and at sites chosen for detailed morphological analyses. The radar programme was carried out using three different radar systems. One CW-radar for high resolution snow depth recordings. The frequency band was 0.8-1.2 GHz. The other systems were mono pulse ... View entire text
