Record #28276:

The use of the rammsonde as an instrument for determining the density of firn / Colin B.B. Bull.

Title: The use of the rammsonde as an instrument for determining the density of firn / Colin B.B. Bull.
Author(s): Bull, Colin B. B.
Date: 1956.
In: Journal of Glaciology. (1956.), Vol. 2(20) (1956)
Abstract: This instrument measures directly resistance to penetration. Shows that direct relationship exists between this and density of snow or firn layer, and, consequently, accurate density profile can be deduced from resistance profile.
Notes:

Journal of Glaciology. Vol. 2(20) :714-718 (1956).
