Record #132782:

Surface velocities in central Greenland from Doppler satellite data / John F. Bolzan.

Title: Surface velocities in central Greenland from Doppler satellite data / John F. Bolzan.
Author(s): Bolzan, John F.
Date: 1994.
In: Byrd Polar Research Center. BPRC Report. (1994.), Vol. 8 (1994)
Abstract: Under auspices of Greenland Ice Sheet Programme II, Doppler data was acquired during 1987 and 1989 field seasons to determine large-scale pattern of ice flow in region. Satellites were tracked at 21 sites on 150 x 150 km grid on Inland Ice and at fixed points on coasts. Resulting velocities are generally perpendicular to surface elevation contours, but flow divide is displaced about 2-3 ice thicknesses to east of topographic crest.
