Grounding-line position and migration of northern Greenland glaciers between 1992 and 1996 inferred from ERS InSAR data. (a) Humboldt Gletscher (b) Petermann Gletscher; (c) Steensby Gletscher; (d) Ryder Gletscher; (e) C. H. Ostenfeld Gletscher; (f) Hagen Brae; (g) Nioghalvfjerdsbrae; (h) Zachariae Isstrom (no 1992 InSAR); and (i) Storstrommen and L. Bistrup Brae. The location of the grounding line is shown in black for 1992 and white for 1996, and marked with a pointing arrow. ISR lines are shown in white for 1995, and black for 1999. Intercepts between grounding lines and ISR are marked as diamonds. Thick, continuous lines in (b, c, d, f, g, h, i) denote portions of the ISR track for which ice is in hydrostatic equilibrium based on a comparison with ATM, represented in white for 1995 and black for 1999. (b) includes a 1999 transverse ISR line used to estimate the grounding line ice flux; no ATM elevation was available for that flight due to cloud cover. All plots are overlay on the radar brightness of the scene from ERS. copyright ESA 1996.
