Summary:
The I-345 project aims to determine whether Kamb Ice Stream in the West Antarctic Ice Sheet is in the process of restarting, and to understand the mechanism enabling or preventing surging depending on their findings. During the 2005-2006 season, the field team retrieved six winter-over systems which had been built by UNAVCO during 2004-2005 and installed by the science group that year. UNAVCO also provided six campaign systems (three R7, three 5700) for use in surveying strain grid arrays near the former UPC campsite. GPS data from the WAIS Divide base station was also used by I-345.
