  2. Radioglaciology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radioglaciology

    Radioglaciology is the study of glaciers, ice sheets, ice caps and icy moons using ice penetrating radar.It employs a geophysical method similar to ground-penetrating radar and typically operates at frequencies in the MF, HF, VHF and UHF portions of the radio spectrum.

  3. Ice sheet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ice_sheet

    Greenland ice sheet as seen from space. An ice sheet is a body of ice which covers a land area of continental size - meaning that it exceeds 50,000 km 2. [4] The currently existing two ice sheets in Greenland and Antarctica have a much greater area than this minimum definition, measuring at 1.7 million km 2 and 14 million km 2, respectively.

  4. Laurentide ice sheet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laurentide_ice_sheet

    The Cordilleran ice sheet covered up to 1,500,000 square kilometres (580,000 sq mi) at the Last Glacial Maximum. [11] The eastern edge abutted the Laurentide ice sheet. The sheet was anchored in the Coast Mountains of British Columbia and Alberta, south into the Cascade Range of Washington. That is one and a half times the water held in the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amundsen_Sea

    The sea is mostly ice-covered, and the Thwaites Ice Tongue protrudes into it. The ice sheet which drains into the Amundsen Sea averages about 3 km (1.9 mi) in thickness; roughly the size of the state of Texas, this area is known as the Amundsen Sea Embayment (ASE); it forms one of the three major ice-drainage basins of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_IceBridge

    IceBridge achieves this by collecting data over ice sheets, glaciers and sea ice. Pine Island Glacier is one such area of focus. There, Operation IceBridge has been observing the underside of the ice-sheet using an advanced radar, as well as closely monitoring an area of Pine Island Glacier known as the ice tongue that, were it to melt, would ...

  9. Ice field - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ice_field

    Ice fields are formed by a large accumulation of snow which, through years of compression and freezing, turns into ice. Because of the susceptibility of ice to gravity, ice fields usually form over large areas that are basins or atop plateaus, thus allowing a continuum of ice to form over the landscape uninterrupted by glacial channels.
