Fiber-Optic Sensing Uncovers Hidden Crevasses Beneath Glacial Ice
Glaciers may look solid and immovable from a distance, but much of their most important structural damage is hidden beneath the surface. A new study by researchers at ETH Zurich shows that a single fibre-optic cable can map fractures deep inside a glacier with a level of detail that would require hundreds of conventional seismometers.
