Greenland Ice Core

1979 Greenland Ice Sheet Program
A modified CRREL thermal drill was used at DYE-3 in Greenland to drill a 8.75-in.-diameter hole 251 ft deep for the installation of a steel casing. This activity was accomplished by a drill team from CRREL in preparation for the Danish deep drill tests. Included in this report is a description of both the drilling and casing operation as well as a description of the equipment used. (Author).
Determining Greenland Ice Sheet Accumulation Rates from Radar Remote Sensing
An important component of NASA's Program for Arctic Regional Climate Assessment (PARCA) is a mass balance investigation of the Greenland Ice Sheet. The mass balance is calculated by taking the difference between the snow accumulation and the ice discharge of the ice sheet. Uncertainties in this calculation include the snow accumulation rate, which has traditionally been determined by interpolating data from ice core samples taken throughout the ice sheet. The sparse data associated with ice cores, coupled with the high spatial and temporal resolution provided by remote sensing, have motivated scientists to investigate relationships between accumulation rate and microwave observations.
