Measuring the fever of the glaciers’ firn and ice
The firn and ice of glaciers can be at temperatures far below freezing point, writes Professor Martin Hoelzle of the University of Fribourg
Glacial ice acts as a natural climate and environmental archive and is able to preserve important information about the past atmosphere. Measurements of firn and ice temperatures,...
