Ice thickness observations in Glacier Schiaparelli, Cordillera Darwin, Chile

DOI

This dataset represents the first ice thickness measurements at Glacier Schiaparelli in Cordillera Darwin, Southern Chile. Data were collected in April 2016 using a ground-penetrating radar (http://www.unmannedindustrial.com/sites/default/files/GPR.pdf) in the ablation area of the glacier. The ASCII file contains 5 columns with the geographical position, elevation and ice thickness interpreted from the radar data. The coordinates (WGS84/UTM 19S) were recorded using a navigator which is integrated to the radar system. The field campaign and the measurements were part of CONICYT-BMBF project GABY-VASA "Responses of Glaciers, Biosphere and Hydrology to Climate Variability across the Southern Andes".
