摘要:
The western margin of the Greenland ice sheet near Jakobshavn has retreated rapidly during the past 100 years. A vegetation trim line which marks the position of the ice marginc. AD 1880 can accurately be identified from LANDSAT MSS imagery. The possibility of identifying other former ice margin positions from satellite data opens up exciting prospects for geomorphology, glaciology, and the study of global climatic and environmental change.
