| Summary:
GPS support was requested to perform an ice stream velocity survey on Ice Stream C to characterize the ice velocities around the project drill sites. Previous GPS and GPR surveys combined with satellite images and aerial photography revealed an elliptically shaped "sticky spot" on the ice stream. The survey was performed near the downstream end of this spot. In November 2000 a velocity profile line of stakes was installed and a "Stop-and-Go" kinematic survey was performed. The survey was repeated in January 2001 to determine displacement and velocity. Full field support was provided for each survey. All data processing was performed by UNAVCO and the data were archived after the field season. |
