Antarctic Peninsula Glacier Mass Balance Workshop
Date: 05. - 06. June 2014 at the Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg, Germany
The workshop targets to bring activities of in-situ measurements, in particular of glacier mass balance components, together with remote sensing and modelling activities.
