| Abstract | The global warming may affect the cryospheric environment and many reports showed the retreat of glaciers, thinning of ice shelves and ice sheet at West Antarctica. On the contrary, East Antarctica seems to be calm state than West Antarctica. Usually, it is necessary to know three geophysical parameters, which are ice thickness, flow velocity of ice and position of grounding line for estimating ice mass balance. This paper describes the potential ability for estimating ice flow velocity and grounding line by ALOS / PALSAR data, and then we show several application examples at East Antarctica. |
