Preface
This manual provides information required to properly carry out GlacioBasis
glaciological fieldwork at the A.P. Olsen ice cap taking advantage of the logistic support
provided by the Zackenberg Research Station. The focus is on the field procedures and
technical details to be strictly followed to ensure the consistency and continuity of the
data collection in the field.
The manual in this first version should be regarded as being still in draft status.
Furthermore, some information such as deployed sensors or the updated location of the
ablation stakes can change slightly over time as a result of additions to the present setup
or re-establishment of lost stakes.
