SURFACE MELT ON THE JUNEAU ICEFIELD, ALASKA We are measuring changes in surface-melt and firn properties on the Juneau Icefield using geophysical, meteorological, and other in-situ observations. We also build on novel applications of water-isotope stratigraphy modeling to determine changes in melt timing and variability across the icefield. |
GEOPHYSICS AT HERCULES DOME, ANTARCTICA Our work at Hercules Dome, Antarctica was part of a geophysical site survey for a prospective deep ice core. We used a variety of ground-penetrating radars to determine snow accumulation, ice flow, and bed toporaphy. Check out the official website for the Hercules Dome Ice Core here. |
