Abstract
An incoherent correlation approach is used to derive ice motion fields for outlet glaciers through the Transantarctic Mountains, Antarctica. High-resolution repeat-pass, left-looking-mode TerraSAR-X data from 2009 were analyzed. Detailed ice velocity patterns on the Nimrod glacier basin and Starshot glacier are presented.
