Resumen
- español
Durante el periodo 1999-2014, el grupo de Simulación Numérica en Ciencias e Ingeniería de la Universidad Politécnica de Madrid llevó a cabo numerosas campañas de georradar en Svalbard orientadas al estudio del espesor y las propiedades físicas del hielo de sus glaciares. Las regiones cubiertas abarcaron Nordenskiöld Land, Wedel Jarlsberg Land, Sabine Land y Nordaustlandet. Se presenta en este artículo una revisión de estos trabajos, centrada en los aspectos relativos al cálculo del volumen de hielo de glaciares individuales y su extrapolación al conjunto de glaciares de Svalbard, para el que los autores estiman un volumen de hielo de 6700±835 km3, o 17±2 mm en equivalente de nivel del mar.

During the period 1999-2014, the Group of Numerical Simulation in Sciences and Engineering of Universidad Politécnica de Madrid carried out many ground-penetrating radar campaigns in Svalbard, aimed to the study of glacier ice-thickness and the physical properties of glacier ice. The regions covered were Nordenskiöld Land, Wedel Jarlsberg Land, Sabine Land and Nordaustlandet. We here present a review of these works, focused on the aspects related to the estimate of the volume of individual glaciers and its extrapolation to the entire set of Svalbard glaciers, for which the authors estimate a total volume of 6700±835 km3, o 17±2 mm in sea-level equivalent.
