VII Resumen Resumen Los modelos de termomecánica glaciar están definidos mediante sistemas de ecuaciones en derivadas parciales que establecen los principios básicos de conservación de masa, momento lineal y energía, acompañados por una ley constitutiva que define la relación entre las tensiones a las que está sometido el hielo glaciar y las deformaciones resultantes de las mismas. La resolución de estas ecuaciones requiere la definición precisa del dominio (la geometría del glaciar, obtenido a partir de medidas topográficas y de georradar), así como contar con un conjunto de condiciones de contorno, que se obtienen a partir de medidas de campo de las variables implicadas y que constituyen un conjunto de datos geoespaciales.

Correspondence: Ethan Welty ([email protected]) Abstract. Although worldwide inventories of glacier area have been coordinated internationally for several decades, a similar effort for glacier ice thicknesses was only initiated in 2013. Here, we present the third version of the Glacier Thickness Database (GlaThiDa v3), which includes 3 854 279 thickness measurements distributed over roughly 3 000 glaciers worldwide. Over- 5 all, 14 % of global glacier area is now within 1 km of a thickness measurement (located on the same glacier) – a significant improvement over GlaThiDa v2, which covered only 6 % of global glacier area, and only 1 100 glaciers.

  • Observations on the Glacial History of Livingston Island1
    Observations on the Glacial History of Livingston Island1 K. R. EVERETT2 ABSTRACT. Livingston Island, one of the South Shetland Islands, Antarctica, has recorded at least three glacial events. During the oldest event all areas of the island below 200 m. were covered by an expanded island ice cap. At that time Livingston Island ice probably joined that of adjacent islands. A second, less extensive event, is recorded by deposits of both the inland ice cap and cirque glaciers. Between these two glacial events a higherstand of sea level produced beaches and terracesat 10.6 m. to 12 m. above the present sea level. Following the second glacial event a higher sea level produced beaches 6.1 m. above the present sea level. A third, minor and probably relatively recent glacial event is recorded by push moraines in some cirques from which the ice has now receded. RÉSUMÉ. Observations sur l'histoireglaciaire de l'île deLivingston. L'une des Shetland du Sud, en Antarctique, I'ile de Livingston a vu au moins trois événements glaciaires. Au cours du plus ancien, toute l'île en bas de la cote 200 m a été recou- verte par une calotte insulaire. A ce moment-là, la glace de Livingston rejoignait probablementcelle des îles adjacentes. Un second événement moins étendu est enregistré à la fois dans les dépôts de la calotte,et dans ceux de glaciers de cirque. Entre ces deux événements, un niveau marin plus élevé a produit des plages et des terrasses entre 10,6 et 12 m au-dessus du niveau marin actuel.

  • Determination of Ice Thickness and Volume of Hurd Glacier, Hurd Peninsula, Livingstone Island, Antarctica
    Universidad de Granada MASTER’S DEGREE IN GEOPHYSICS AND METEOROLOGY MASTER’S THESIS DETERMINATION OF ICE THICKNESS AND VOLUME OF HURD GLACIER, HURD PENINSULA, LIVINGSTONE ISLAND, ANTARCTICA ÁNGEL RENTERO VARGAS Abstract.The present work is the result of several radio-echo sounding (RES) surveys carried out on Hurd Glacier, Hurd Peninsula, Livingston Island, Antarctica, during the austral summer season 2001/2002 campaign, which included radar profiling and common-midpoint measurements with low (20-25 MHz) and high (100- 200MHz)frequency using a ground penetrating radar (GPR), allowing to estimate the radio-wave velocities (RWV) and determine the subglacial relief, thickness and volume of the glacier, topographical surface, and to study the global flux of the ice mass. Theprofiles reached a total length of 77.5 km, with 3922 radio-echo sounding measurements and estimating an average ice volume of 0.35 km3 and a maximum ice thickness of 200 m. Keywords: Hurd Glacier, radio- echo sounding (RES), ground penetrating radar (GPR), radio- wave velocities (RWV). INTRODUCCIÓN Hurd Peninsula ice cap (62°39-42'S, 60°19-25'W; Fig. 1) is based in Livingston Island, South Shetland Islands, Antarctica, covering an area of nearly 10 km². The main ice cap is drained by several outlet glaciers: Argentina, flowing northwestwards; Las Palmas, flowing westwards; Sally Rocks tongue, flowing southwestwards; an unnamed tongue flowing southwards (where the authors refer to as McGregor glacier); and Johnsons Glacier, flowing northwestwards, which is additionally fed by ice draining not from the main ice cap but from the east and northeast. For the latter reason, Hurd Peninsula ice cap is often subdivided into two main glacier units: Johnsons Glacier, a tidewater glacier; and Hurd Glacier, the remainingice mass, mostly ending on land.

Aerial photographs and satellite images can be used for determinate the glacier terminus line. If the glacier front is easily accessible, the classic survey using total station or theodolite, GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) techniques, laser-scanner or close range photogrammetry are possible. When the accessibility to glaciers is not easy, close range photogrammetry proves to be useful, cheap and fast. In this paper, a methodology that combines photogrammetric methods and other techniques for the 20 snout of the Johnsons Glacier (inaccessible) is studied. The images obtained from the front in 2013, come from a non- metric digital camera; its georeferencing to a global coordinate system is performed by measuring points GNSS support in accessible areas of the glacier front side and applying methods of direct intersection in inaccessible points of the front, taking measurements with theodolite. The result of observations obtained with different geomatics measurement techniques, were applied to study the temporal evolution (1957-2014) of the position of the Johnsons glacier front and the 25 position of the Argentina, Las Palmas and Sally Rocks lobes (Hurd glacier).
