Abstract
A comparison was made between ice velocities that were measured by the radio-echo technique and ice velocities measured by a survey method on the Devon Island ice cap, Arctic Canada. Results were 2.58 + or - 0.11 m/a by radar and 2.17 + or - 0.20 m/a by survey. The discrepancy between the two measurements is within the limits of statistical significance, and the methods were considered to give comparable results.
