- Description
- To advance understanding of the large variety of complex ice shelf failure mechanisms and their interrelation which is currently largely unknown, we intend to perform a seismic survey data of the Fimbul Ice Shelf to produce important constraints for numerical modeling with respect to parameterization of mechanical and physical material properties as well as ice shelf basal topography and ocean bed bathymetry. . This survey will constitute one component of a project funded by the South African National Antarctic Programme (SANAP), a program of South Africa’s National Research Foundation (NRF), that seeks to clarify the structural glaciology of the Fimbulisen, located in Dronning Maud Land, Antarctica. Our seismic survey will complement extensive GNSS, Synthetic Aperture Rader, airborne and ground-penetrating radar, and phase-sensitive radar (ApRES) data for purposes of a modeling effort overseen by Dr. Sebastian Skatulla (Univ. of Cape Town)
