Glaciar, georradar, Svalbard, espesor de hielo, volumenResumen
Durante el periodo 1999-2014, el grupo de Simulación Numérica en Ciencias e Ingeniería de la Universidad Politécnica de Madrid llevó a cabo numerosas campañas de georradar en Svalbard orientadas al estudio del espesor y las propiedades físicas del hielo de sus glaciares. Las regiones cubiertas abarcaron Nordenskiöld Land, Wedel Jarlsberg Land, Sabine Land y Nordaustlandet. Se presenta en este artículo una revisión de estos trabajos, centrada en los aspectos relativos al cálculo del volumen de hielo de glaciares individuales y su extrapolación al conjunto de glaciares de Svalbard, para el que los autores estiman un volumen de hielo de 6700±835 km3, o 17±2 mm en equivalente de nivel del mar.Descargas
