AGASEA 4.7 ka Englacial Isochron over the Thwaites Glacier Catchment

This file contains internal radar horizon 1 (lm-MERGE-lay9-grg) for West Antarctica, collected during the SOAR/CASERTZ (1991-1996), SOAR/DVD (1999), ATRS (2001), AGASEA (2004-05) and GIMBLE (2013-2014) expeditions. Only data collected in AGASEA is contained in this specific product.

The internal radar horizon (IRH) was traced semi-automatically by Gail R. Muldoon using Haliburtons's Landmark software and picker, in a combination of 2D focused and unfocused data.
Depths were calculated using a 2 way velocity in ice of 84.5 m/microsecond, and no firn correction.

Isochron age is 4711 (+/- 246 ) years.
