Det er veldig sannsynlig at det er store sprekkområder på alle disse breene.
Hvite flekker med flerfargede pixler indikerer at vi ikke har data for disse områdene. De flekkene betyr ikke at det er lave hastigheter.
Legg merke til at det er forskjellig skala på de forskjellige bildene.
Increasing
flow velocities were measured on the glaciers Austre Torellbreen, Hansbreen,
Paierlbreen and Mühlbacherbreen. These glaciers are all moving faster than last
year, and high velocities have been measured far up the glaciers, not just at
their fronts.
It is very
likely that widespread crevassing affects all of these glaciers.
White
patches with multicolored pixels indicate that we do not have data over these
areas. It does not mean low velocities.
Pay
attention to the change in scale between the images.
