SCATTERING FEATURES ANALYSES OF THE SHALLOW ANTARCTIC ICE SHEET BASED ON ICE-PENETRATING RADAR METHOD:A CASE-STUDY ALONG THE ZHONGSHAN STATION-DOME A TRANSECT

Abstract

Abstract:

Radio-echo detecting ice sheet is one of the most significant progresses in Antarctic ice sheet researches in recent 20 years. Ice-penetrating radar is a convenient and significant method to image and analyze the properties of Antarctic ice sheet internal structure. This research used the two-frequency (60 MHz and 179 MHz) radar to detect the radar internal reflection strata. The variations of the received power within 100—700 m of the ice sheet surface along the Zhongshan-Dome A transect showed that: the r...

Key words: ice-penetrating radar, Zhongshan-Dome A transect, shallow ice sheet, scattering, East Antarctica
