Abstract

AbstractNumerous features of glaciological significance appear on two adjoining SPOT High Resolution Visible (HRV) images that cover the onset region of Ice Stream B, Antarctica. Many small-scale features, such as crevasses and drift plumes, have been observed in aerial photography. Subtle large-scale features, such as long flow traces that have not been mapped previously, are clear in the satellite imagery. Newly discovered features include ladder-like runners and rungs within certain shear margins, flow traces that are parallel to ice flow, unusual crevasse patterns and flow traces originating within shear margins.
