摘要
The Recovery Ice Stream with its large catchment basin plays an important role in discharging ice from East Antarctica into the Weddell Sea through the Filchner Ice Shelf. Its scientific interest is also linked to the discovery that the ice flow is influenced by the discharge of several subglacial lakes, which could trigger a faster flow due to reduced friction on the glacier bed. We analyzed surface elevations of the Recovery Glacier system in Antarctica derived from time series of TanDEM-X data with focus on location of subglacial lakes. The absolute calibration of the TanDEM-X DEMs was performed using airborne laser altimetry datasets from NASA's Operation Icebridge ATM and AWI's Polar 6. In addition the grounding line position for the neighbouring Slessor, Bailey and Recovery glaciers was estimated through DInSAR with TerraSAR-X data acquired in 2014 and 2015.
