The Sentinel-1 Mission: New Opportunities for Ice Sheet Observations
The Sentinel satellite constellation series, developed by the European Space Agency, represents the dedicated space component of the European Copernicus program, committed to long-term operational services in a wide range of application domains. Here, we address the potential of the Sentinel-1 mission for mapping and monitoring the surface velocity of glaciers and ice sheets. We present an ice ...
متن کاملAntifreeze thermal ice core drilling: an effective approach to the acquisition of ice cores
Antifreeze thermal electric drills have a long history of ice drilling in temperate, subpolar and polar glaciers. Shallow, intermediate and deep ice cores have been obtained in Arctic, Antarctic and on high elevation glaciers. Many merits and drawbacks of antifreeze thermal technology have been discovered over the past 25 years. A modified version of the antifreeze thermal electric ice coring d...
متن کاملDisturbance Observer Based Heave Compensation Control for Benthic Coring Drill
Severe environment in deep ocean affects operating reliability and security of coring drill. Adopting heave motion signal measured by accelerometer to confirm heave compensation of coring drill, the compensation control method is proposed using disturbance observer to restrain the disturbance. Then, the disturbance observer is designed. The heave motion simulation for coring drill is done with ...
متن کاملHamilton-type principles applied to ice-sheet dynamics: new approximations for large-scale ice-sheet flow
Ice-sheet modelers tend to be more familiar with the Newtonian, vectorial formulation of continuum mechanics, in which the motion of an ice sheet or glacier is determined by the balance of stresses acting on the ice at any instant in time. However, there is also an equivalent and alternative formulation of mechanics where the equations of motion are instead found by invoking a variational princ...
متن کاملA new ice thickness and bedrock dataset for the Greenland ice sheet
Ice thickness data collected between 1993 and 1999 using a coherent ice penetrating radar system developed at the University of Kansas have been combined with data collected by the Technical University of Denmark in the 1970s to produce a new ice thickness grid for Greenland. Cross-over analysis was used to assess the relative accuracy of the two datasets and they were weighted accordingly and ...
