title: Double Reflections in Polarized Radar Data Reveal Ice Fabric in the North East Greenland Ice Stream
abstract: Abstract The orientation of ice crystals within large ice masses has a strong influence on their mechanical properties, but cannot be directly observed from the surface. The bulk birefringence of anisotropic ice allows us to infer information about the crystal orientation fabric (COF) from polarized radar measurements. Here, we show a new approach for determining the orientation and strength of horizontal COF anisotropy from two radar reflections originating from the same physical layer in biref
