Integrated geophysical measurement on the Hallstatter glacier (Austria)

54th EAEG Meeting, 1992
Study of glaciers may contribute to the solution of some scientific problems which have become important recently. More accurate determination of the size and geometry of glaciers may result in a more accurate estimation of the potential fresh water reserves and of impacts of climatic changes.

Measurement of glacier geophysical properties from insar wrapped phase

IEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing, 2003
A method is presented for calculating longitudinal glacier strain rates directly from the wrapped phase of an interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) interferogram assuming the ice flow path is known. This technique enables strain rates to be calculated for scenes lacking any velocity control points or areas within a scene where the phase is ...

Multidisciplinary geophysical investigations over an alpine rock glacier

Geophysics, 2015
ABSTRACT We have performed a multidisciplinary geophysical survey combined with geotechnical investigations over a degrading alpine rock glacier. A dense grid of helicopter-borne ground-penetrating radar data allowed the 3D shape of the bedrock topography and the gross transition from ice-rich to ice-poor parts of the rock glacier to ...

Glaciers and geophysics

Eos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1933
To consider the relation of glaciation to other branches of geophysics we must first develop the cause of glaciation; and this will require us to recall some ideas which, though elementary, are fundamental, and it is by keeping fundamental principles in mind that we can build most securely the superstructure.The first requisite for glaciation is the ...

Geophysical parameters estimation with TerraSAR-X of outlet glaciers in the Transantarctic Mountains

2012 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2012
We discuss TerraSAR-X observations of three Transantarctic Mountain (TAM) outlet glaciers: Byrd, Nimrod and Beardmore. High resolution TerraSAR-X data acquired over the area in late 2009 and late 2010 using left looking mode were processed to generate detailed 2D ice velocity maps by means of speckle tracking.

Internal structure and trend of glacier change assessed by geophysical investigations

Environmental Earth Sciences, 2012
Ground-penetrating radar (GPR) is a useful tool for mapping the thickness, morphology and structure of alpine glaciers. Englacial information obtained during a field survey of the Koxkar Glacier in Tian Shan, China, in June 2008 was retrieved from GPR profile data.

A Geophysical and Petrophysical Appraisal of a Possible Origin of Himalayan Rivers and Glaciers

Journal Geological Society of India, 1989
Abstract Recent investigations of the seismic, electrical conductivity and rheological structures of the continental crust favours the presence of a fluid-rich layer at the mid and lower crustal levels. Such layers may exhibit high electrical conductivity, seismic reflectivity and ductility.

Geophysical survey of Johnsons Glacier (Antarctica): Comparing seismic and RES data

SEG Technical Program Expanded Abstracts 2000, 2000
Seismic and radio-echo sounding data have been acquired along coincident profiles at the temperate Johnsons Glacier (Livingston Island, South Shetland Islands, Antarctica). Seismic data have been processed and the results provide information about ice-thickness and bedrock topography.

Geophysical Imaging of the WWI Archeological Site of Linke Peak (Forni Glacier, Italian Central Alps)

Proceedings, 2015
The centenary of World War I triggered several and relevant studies in the fields of Conflict Archeology. The research scenario becomes even more challenging when the study site is located at high altitude in the Alps were past battles and also the modern research should face extreme conditions.
