Zhang, D. (author), Zhang, L. (author), Verschuur, D.J. (author)Ground penetrating radar (GPR) is a commonly used technology for identifying and examining ice. The low electrical conductivity and the uniformity of ice covers provide GPR with exceptional signal penetration and, thus, the ability to reveal the internal layers of glaciers. To extract the necessary information, wavefield separation and imaging...conference paper 2024
