GLISTIN-A- Glacier and Ice Surface Topography Interferometer
The Ka-band radar aboard the JSC G-III successfully completed the Oceans Melting Greenland mission on Wednesday, March 22. Altogether, we flew 10 science flights (and one pure transit flight) over a 13-day period from March 10-22 and acquired 85 planned flight lines over the coastal glaciers in Greenland. We also acquired several opportunistic sea ice lines to cross-check calibration of the processor. Attached is a quick look DEM (digital elevation model) generated by our deployment team in Greenland over Leidy Gletscher and Marie Gletscher just north of Thule.
