Summary: Expansion bolts were installed in 19 boulders embedded in multiple gelifluction lobes east of the Stocking glacier (Figure 6). A Trimble 5700 receiver base station and another Trimble 5700 rover were used to measure the locations of the pins relative to a pin in a boulder determined from aerial photographs to be below the active flow. Future measurements will reveal surface flow velocities, which can be used to better understand these flow features in Antarctica which Dr. Marchant believes may be used as present and past climatic indicators. UNAVCO provided equipment, field, and processing support, and also data archiving. |
