ESA Antarctic Ice Sheet Climate Change Initiative (Antarctic_Ice_Sheet_cci): Grounding Line Locations for the Ferringo, Pine Island, Thwaites, Smith, Kohler and Pope Glaciers, Antarctica, 1995-2017, v2.0

Grounding line locations (GLL) data for the Ferringo, Pine Island, Thwaites, Smith, Kohler and Pope Glaciers in Antarctica, produced by the ESA Antarctic Ice Sheet Climate Change Initiative (CCI) project. The grounding lines have been derived from satellite observations from the ERS-1/2 and Copernicus Sentinel-1 instruments, acquired in the period from 1995-2017.

Statement: Data were produced by DLR in the context of the ESA CCI Antarctic Ice Sheet project team and are archived on the ENVEO Cryoportal ( http://cryoportal.enveo.at/data/). They have been supplied to CEDA in the context of the ESA CCI Open Data Portal Project.

2018-09-12 These data were removed from the archive or the following reason: Data was replaced at the request of the data provider - this initial version contained more data than the official CCI product.
