Ice stream flowing west between Jensen Nunataks and Gunn Peaks into George VI Ice Shelf. Named after European Space Agency satellites carrying Synthetic Aperture Radar instruments. ERS-1 was operational between 1991 and 1999 and was joined by ERS-2 from 1995 - 2011. The SAR systems provided high-resolution wide-swath all-weather and day-and-night images including repeat-pass interferometry for polar ice velocity measurements.
