Internal characteristics of ice-marginal sediments deduced from georadar profiling and sediment properties (Brøgger Peninsula, Svalbard)

Abstract Georadar and sedimentological data were acquired in the Ny-Alesund area on Brogger Peninsula in order to study diamicton in frontal areas of Vestre Broggerbreen and Midre Lovenbreen. Parallel common offset georadar lines were acquired for information on thickness and layering and multioffset measurements served to deduce the subground velocity. Short permafrost cores (
