Fiber Optics Can Map Ice Sheet Temperatures In Unprecedented Detail
Monitoring changes in vast masses of ice is paramount to comprehend the effects of climate change on the planet. So, scientists developed a new tool that takes measurements to unprecedented levels of accuracy. They have obtained the most detailed measures of ice properties ever taken on the Greenland Ice Sheet using fiber-optic sensing.
The technology uses a mix of fiber-optic cables and laser pulses to gain exact temperature readings from the very top of the Greenland Ice Sheet to the very bottom, offering a clearer image of the changes occurring throughout Earth’s second-largest ice sheet.
