Abstract

This dataset contains airborne radar data acquired using the AWIs multi-channel ultra-wideband radar system (AWI UWB) during the Arctic season of 2016. The profiles extend across the Central-west and South-west Greenland Ice Sheet over e.g., Store Glacier and Jakobshavn Isbræ and were part of the first test season of the AWI UWB radar system. The data are available as netCDF files (including waveforms and metadata), KML files of the profile line locations, and quicklook images of the radargrams.
