Location:

This project aims to image the subglacial conditions and bed topography of glaciers in Svalbard using a 3D ground penetrating radar survey. This will result in the ability to identify basal features which are fundamental to subglacial hydrology and basal drag, however are not resolvable using traditional 2D radar surveys.
