It is used to map ice thicknesses and internal layernigs of glaciers, ice sheets and ice shelves, and is capable of penetrating ice thicknesses of up to 4 km. The system was designed and built by AWI in cooperation with Aerodata Flugmeßtechnik GmbH, Technische Umversitat Hamburg-Harburg and the Deutsches Zentrum fur Luft- und Raumfahrt e.V. The system uses state-of-the-art techniques, and results in high vertical (5 m) as well as along-track (3.25 m) resolution. The radar signal is a 150 MHz burst with a duration of 60 or 600 ns. The peak power is 1.6 kW, and the system sensitivity is 190 dB. The short backfire principle has been adopted and optimized for antennae used on Polar2, a Dormer 228-100 aircraft, resulting in an antenna gain of 14 dB each. Digital data recording allows further processing. The qual...

Dabei kann Hibernate seine volle Kraft entfalten, wenn neue Anwendungen von Grund auf zu entwickeln sind. Aber eine Neuentwicklung setzt nicht immer auf der grünen Wiese auf. Oft müssen bestehende Anwendungen integriert oder nachgebildet werden. Hier hilft das Reverse Engineering.

The collected data are the basis for mass flux determinations in the entrainment area of the ice stream into the Ronne !ce Shelf. In this paper, the collected data and first results will be presented. Dur­ ing the expedition, 106 seismic soundings were performed to obtain informa­ tion about ice thickness, water column thickness and the uppermost layered sea bed in the grounding line area of the Foundation !ce Stream. In addition, air­ borne radio echo soundings (RES) took place over the southeastern part of the Ronne !ce Shelf gaining more widespread information about the icc thickness. The ice thickness data derived from these different methods agree weIl. At the base camp at 83°10.0' S, 59°34.45' W, the supposed position ofthe grounding line, a gravity meter measured the tide induced vertical movement o...

It is used to map ice thicknesses and internal layerings of glaciers, ice sheets and ice shelves, and is capable of penetrating ice thicknesses of up to 4 km. The system was designed and built by AWI in cooperation with Aerodata Flugmeß-technik GmbH, Technische Universität Hamburg-Harburg and the Deutsches Zentrum fuür Luft- und Raumfahrt e.V. The system uses state-of-the-art techniques, and results in high vertical (5 m) as well as along-track (3.25 m) resolution. The radar signal is a 150 MHz burst with a duration of 60 or 600 ns. The peak power is 1.6 kW, and the system sensitivity is 190 dB. The short backfire principle has been adopted and optimized for antennae used on Polar2, a Dornier 228-100 aircraft, resulting in an antenna gain of 14 dB each. Digital data recording allows further processing. The quality of the recorded data can be monitored on screen and as online analogue plots during the flight.
