Abstract :
From a series of three JERS-1 SAR interferograms over the Yamato mountains area in the Antarctica, ice surface movement is detected. In spite of less accurate orbit information, baselines are estimated using 1 km global DEM and referring phases over bare rock areas. The Detected movement fields from three interferograms resemble, but different subtly
