dc.description.abstractGlacier mass balance and ice flow dynamics, strongly influenced by climatic variability, topography, and geological–structural controls, can be precisely characterized through in situ GPS measurements of surface ice velocity, though such data remain limited due to logistical challenges in field acquisition. This study presents direct measurements of surface ice velocity on Grey Glacier, a major outlet glacier of the Southern Patagonian Icefield (SPI) in Chile. Ice flow was monitored over a one-week period in late 2002 by tracking the displacement of six stakes installed on the glacier surface. The resulting velocity data reveal spatial patterns of surface flow that provide significant information for the comparison and validation of remote sensing observations, which is particularly relevant considering that the ice mass from which the data were collected has since disappeared due to glacier retreat. The combined use of ground-based and remote sensing methods is essential for advancing our understanding of glacier motion and behavior, particularly in the context of climate forcing.en
