WILLIAMS, Jr., and JANE G. FERRIGNO U.S. GEOLOGICAL SURVEY PROFESSIONAL PAPER 1386–J–1 The Rocky Mountains of Canada include four distinct ranges from the U.S. border to northern British Columbia: Border, Continental, Hart, and Muskwa Ranges. They cover about 170,000 km2, are about 150 km wide, and have an estimated glacierized area of 38,613 km2. Mount Robson, at 3,954 m, is the highest peak. Glaciers range in size from ice fields, with major outlet glaciers, to glacierets. Small mountain-type glaciers in cirques, niches, and ice aprons are scattered throughout the ranges.

Correspondence to: Dominic A. Hodgson ([email protected]) Abstract. The East Antarctic Ice Sheet discharges into the Weddell Sea via the Coats Land ice margin. We have used geophysical data to determine the changing ice sheet configuration in this region through its last advance and retreat, and identify constraints on its future stability. Methods included high-resolution multibeam- 15 bathymetry, sub-bottom profiles, seismic-reflection profiles, sediment core analysis and satellite altimetry. These provide evidence that Coats Land glaciers and ice streams merged with the palaeo-Filchner Ice Stream during the last ice advance. Retreat of this ice stream from 12.8 to 8.4 cal kyr BP resulted in its progressive southwards decoupling from Coats Land glaciers. Moraines and grounding-zone wedges document the subsequent retreat and thinning of these glaciers, loss of contact with the bed, and the formation of ice shelves, 20 which re-advanced to pinning points on topographic highs at the distal end of their troughs.

  • Surface Velocities of the East Antarctic Ice Streams from Radarsat-1 Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar Data
    SURFACE VELOCITIES OF THE EAST ANTARCTIC ICE STREAMS FROM RADARSAT-1 INTERFEROMETRIC SYNTHETIC APERTURE RADAR DATA DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Zhiyuan Zhao, B.S., M.S. ***** The Ohio State University 2001 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Alan Saalfeld, Adviser Professor Kenneth C. Jezek Adviser Professor Carolyn J. Merry Geodetic Science Graduate Program This photo was taken on February 28, 2001 after Zhiyuan Zhao’s Ph.D. defense. From left to right: Professor Kenneth C. Jezek, Professor Carolyn J. Merry, Professor Alan Saalfeld, Zhiyuan Zhao, Professor Avraham Benatar (graduate school representative). ABSTRACT The newly discovered East Antarctic Ice Streams drain a significant portion of the Antarctic Ice Sheet. Therefore, changes in their flow behavior can significantly alter ice- sheet mass-balance and influence global sea level. This dissertation research created the most comprehensive measurements to date of surface velocity across the East Antarctic Ice Streams using RADARSAT-1 interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) data acquired in 1997. Two-dimensional surface velocity was derived by combined interferometric and speckle matching techniques. Improvements in both techniques mediated some of the unique problems and limitations associated with imaging the Antarctic Ice Sheet using RADARSAT-1. The improvements included Delaunay triangulation based co-registration of SAR images, phase reconciliation of disconnected phase patches, and two-dimensional velocity calibration using extended velocity control points. The research produced a highly dense, highly accurate, two-dimensional surface velocity map of the East Antarctic Ice Streams, and a by-product coherence map reflecting surface changes.

Using the first full interfero- 5 metric synthetic-aperture radar (InSAR) coverage of the region completed in 2009 and partial coverage acquired in 1997, we process the data to assemble a comprehensive map of ice velocity changes with a nominal precision of detection of ±3–4 myr−1. The largest observed changes, an increase in speed of 100 myr−1 in 12 yr, are near the frontal regions of the large ice shelves and are associated with the slow detachment of 10 large tabular blocks that will eventually form icebergs.

  • Antarctic Ice Sheet Balance Velocities from Merged Point and Vector Data Abstract
    Antarctic Ice Sheet Balance Velocities from Merged Point and Vector Data Xiaolan Wu1 and K.C. Jezek2 1. Geography Department and Byrd Polar Research Center, The Ohio State University 2. Byrd Polar Research Center and Department of Geological Sciences, The Ohio State University Abstract We estimate Antarctic ice-flow balance-velocities, which are the average speeds that ice must flow downslope through a volume assuming that there are equal amounts of ice entering and leaving the ice volume. We use the OSU Digital Elevation Model (DEM) of Antarctica, recent ice accumulation rate data, and the BEDMAP ice thickness data compilations for Antarctica to characterize the physical properties of the ice sheet that are included in the balance velocity calculation. We adapt a flux algorithm from the hydrology literature that enables us to calculate the flux distribution from any cell in any order. Flux from one cell to its neighbors is partitioned as a simple function of surface slope direction. Digitized flow stripe directions from satellite images minimize errors in flow direction where surface slopes are low or complex. We estimate errors in balance velocity arising from errors in the data and show semi-quantitatively how properties of the algorithm bias the balance velocity result. We find a favorable comparison between our model and observed velocity data as well as the balance velocity patterns reported by other researchers. 1 1 Introduction A basic question about any ice sheet concerns whether or not it is thickening or thinning. One way to answer that question is to model the steady state properties of the ice sheet and then compare the model with measurements.
