Test19115 CLONE_Copy of record Front velocity of tidewater glaciers in Hornsund created at 2020-12-11 11:03:56

Glacier velocities are derived from the displacements of four stakes (Z, R, T, U) installed close to the front of three glaciers in Hornsund. Measurements of stakes position were conducted in 2013-2015, with precise dGPS receiver (Leica 1230, accuracy ±5cm) and single-frequency GPS receiver (Garmin, accuracy ±5m).

Detailed description of the source data and accuracy can be found in:

Supplemental Information
Błaszczyk M., Ignatiuk D., Uszczyk A., Cielecka K., Grabiec M., Jania J.A., Moskalik M., Walczowski W. Freshwater input to the Arctic fjord Hornsund (Svalbard), Polar Research Coverage area: Hansbreen Z| POINT (77.02 15.64) Storbreen R| POINT (77.10 16.36) Hornbreen T| POINT (77.07 16.65) Hornbreen U| POINT (77.06 16.70) Date/time range: Hansbreen Z| August 2013-August 2014 Storbreen R| August 2013- August 2014 Hornbreen T| August 2014 - August 2015 Hornbreen U| August 2014- August 2015 Data resolution: Stakes positions measured once per year. Spatial resolution – n/a (point data) Data quality: Stakes positions measured with precise dGPS receiver were estimated with use the corrections from reference GPS station at the Polish Polar Station in Hornsund. Measurements with single-frequency GPS receiver were based on two minutes observations. The accuracy was sufficient for determining glaciers velocities in one-year interval.
