Summary: Dr. Doran’s team returned to measure the positions of ablation stakes on lakes Fryxell, Hoare, and Bonney to help determine the motion of surface ice on these perennially frozen lakes. UNAVCO trained a member of the B-426 team to use the Trimble gear and provided him with a pair of Trimble 5700 GPS systems for his field work.  Additional support included modest data processing and data archiving.
