探地雷达广泛应用于冰川和冰冻物质的研究。重要的调查领域包括:1)冰川和冻土的含水量,通常指示冰川冰或永久冻土的热状态,2)冰下/地下排水的路径,3)冰川和冻结物质的内部结构,有时指示冰或永久冻土的流动性质,4)冻土和冰川冰的破裂和变形,(5)沉积物/冰基质中的包裹体,如海冰中的作为盐水、冰川冰中的沉积物和冻土中的含冰量。本文综述了探地雷达在冰川和冰冻物质中的应用,重点介绍了最近的科学进展,评估了探地雷达技术在这些环境中的局限性,并指出了该领域未来可能的发展。
Ground-penetrating radar is widely applied to the study of glacial and frozen materials. Significant areas of investigation include: 1) the water content of glaciers and frozen ground, often indicating the state of the thermal regime of glacier ice or permafrost, 2) route-ways for subglacial/subsurface drainage, 3) the internal structure of glacial and frozen materials, sometimes indicating flow properties of ice or permafrost, 4) the fracturing and deformation of frozen ground and glacier ice, and 5) inclusions in the sediment/ice matrix, such as salt water in sea ice, sediment in glacier ice and the ice content of frozen ground. This review of the application of GPR to glacial and frozen materials highlights recent scientific advances, assesses the limitations of the GPR technique for these environments and indicates possible future developments in the field.
