Inclinometers
An inclinometer is an instrument that measures its inclination relative to the gravity. In each borehole, we will deploy a chain of inclinometers in order to reconstruct the ice deformation from its base up to the surface. This will allow estimating which part of the observed surface velocity is due to ice deformation, and therefore estimating the basal sliding at the borehole location. Luc Piard is in charge of this instrument.
