Metadata details

ASAC_1164_AM01_GPS

All scientific data collected by the Australian Antarctic program (AAp) are eventually described in the Catalogue of Australian Antarctic and Subantarctic Metadata (CAASM). CAASM can be used to search through AAp data descriptions, and it also provides links to access publicly available datasets, which can either be immediately downloaded or obtained from the Australian Antarctic Data Centre (AADC).

    Description

    AM01 borehole drilled January 2002 at a height of 65 metres above sea level.

    GPS data collected in two segments: over 3 days 'static' around 07-Jan-2002, and a short kinematic sequence on 23-Jan-2002.

    Quality

    See Readme file ... GPS data were recorded alongside the borehole for tidal motion (60 hours continuous, 30 s sampling), surface elevation, and surface motion of the ice shelf. A brief kinematic EW survey line was recorded for local surface profile measurements.
