Tidal Flexure, Ice Velocities, and Ablation Rates of Peterman Gletscher, GreenlandOver the floating section of a tide-water glacier, single radar intererograms are difficult to use because the long-term steady motion of the ice is intermixed with the tidal vertical motion of the glacier. With multiple interferograms, it is however possible to isolate the tidal signal and remove it from the single interferograms to estimate the ice velocities. The technique is applied to ERS-1 synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images of Petermann Gletscher, north Greenland.
