1. 1. Differential Interferometry and Multiple-Aperture Interferometry for Retrieving Three-Dimensional Measurements of Glacial Surface Velocity

   University essay from Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi

   Author : Luke Webber; [2016]
   Keywords : Differential Interferometry; Multiple-Aperture Interferometry; 3D; Glacial Surface Velocity;

   Abstract : The measurement and monitoring of glacial surface velocity is important for many aspects of glaciology, such as determining the mass balance, for characterising the stability or instability of glaciers, or the identification of potential hazards from surging glaciers or Jökulhlaups, a type of glacial outburst flood. Predominately measurements of glacial surface velocity have been produced using either differential interferometry (DInSAR) applied to radar data, or offset-tracking applied to either optical or radar data.
