Joe MacGregor on Mapping the Geology of Greenland Below the Ice

  • Summary

  • With most of Greenland buried by kilometers of ice, obtaining direct information about its geology is challenging. But we can learn a lot from measurements of the island’s geophysical properties — seismic, gravity, magnetic from airborne and satellite surveys and from its topography, which we can see relatively well through the ice using radar. In the podcast, Joe MacGregor explains how he created a new map of Greenland’s geology and speculates on what we can learn from it.

    MacGregor is a Research Physical Scientist at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center.
