Echogram Data was collected from the Greenland 2009 Airborne Radar survey flights covering three fast-flowing outlet glaciers including Jakobshavn. The echograms used in this artwork give radar echoes, or sonograms, from internal layers and bedrock beneath the thick glacier layer. Bedrock is represented by the generally deepest and roughest line or curve. These never-seen-before echogram data sets help improve glaciological ice flow and hydrological water flow models. For example, the rate of ice and water flow increases where the channels become deeper. With these new terrain models, scientists may more accurately simulate and predict the ice sheet movement in response to a warming climate.
Echogram Data was collected by CReSIS personnel on a newly configured, Kenn Borek Air Limited (KBAL), Twin Otter DHC-6 Series 300 aircraft. Field team members included Anthony Hoch, Joshua Meisel, Fernando
Rodriguez-Morales and Logan Smith.
