Probing Antarctic Ice Sheet by Correlation Seismology

该项目旨在通过分析包括环境噪声在内的自然源的地震地面运动记录，推进对南极冰盖内部结构和时间变化的研究。这种方法有望补充现有的卫星和航空方法，以解决大面积的冰川结构和检测隐藏在积雪下的变化。预期的成果是对冰盖的分层、气候变化引起的长期变化及其对当地天气事件的快速反应有了新的认识。其好处包括提高冰盖演变建模和海平面上升预测的可靠性，打开研究地球深层内部的极地门户，并为冰冷世界的太空任务做准备。

This project aims to advance research on the internal structure and temporal change in the Antarctic ice sheet by analysing seismic ground motion records of natural sources, including ambient noise. This approach expects to complement existing satellite and airborne methods to resolve glacial structures over large areas and detect changes hidden under snow cover. The intended outcome is new knowledge of the ice sheet’s stratification, its long-term variation due to climate change, and its rapid response to local weather events. The benefits include improving the reliability of ice sheet evolution modelling and sea-level rise prediction, unlocking a polar gateway to study Earth deep interior, and preparing for space missions to icy worlds.
