Reinhard Drews does his postdoctoral research
at ULB with Frank Pattyn
and in collaboration with Kenny
Matsuoka. He is engaged in the IdyRA (Ice
dynamics derived from englacial Radar reflection
Architecture) project, which aims to link
higher-order ice sheet models with internal
reflection horizons observed in radar data. The
area of interest is in the coastal region of
eastern Dronning Maud Land, Antarctica, where the
marine ice sheet is buttressed by numerous ice
rises. The combination of modelling with
observational data aims to infer characteristics
of the floating ice shelf (e.g. subglacial melt
rates) and the corresponding effects on the
grounded ice (e.g. temporal stability of the ice
rises). Other research interests include the
deduction of internal ice properties by means of
radio-echo sounding and the derivation of surface
velocities/topography by using interferometric
synthetic aperture radar. |
