Record #98211:

Observations of the surface properties of the ice sheets by satellite radar altimetry / Kim Charles Partington, Jeffrey K. Ridley, Christopher G. Rapley, H. Jay Zwally.

Title: Observations of the surface properties of the ice sheets by satellite radar altimetry / Kim Charles Partington, Jeffrey K. Ridley, Christopher G. Rapley, H. Jay Zwally.
Author(s): Partington, Kim Charles.
Ridley, Jeffrey K.
Rapley, Christopher G.
Zwally, H. Jay.
Date: 1989.
In: Journal of Glaciology. (1989.), Vol. 35(120) (1989)
Abstract: Investigates spatial and temporal variations in ice-sheet altimeter returns and interprets observed variations using model developed earlier. It was hoped to demonstrate usefulness of technique in providing information on surface roughness, ablation and accumulation, and distribution of ice types.
Notes:

Journal of Glaciology. Vol. 35(120) :267-275 (1989).
