This award is in support of the second Greenland Ice Sheet Project              (GISP II).  The principal objective of GISP II is the recovery and              paleoclimatological analysis of a deep ice core from central                    Greenland.  The primary objectives of this aspect are to study the              effects of ice flow on the stratigraphy along the GISP II                       flowline, and to determine a preliminary time scale for the deep                borehole site.  Detailed variations of surface topography, strain               rate, surface velocity, and accumulation rate are to be measured.               These results will be used to determine the locations of intense                shear zones resulting from the variation of the effective                       viscosity with depth and the influence of the bedrock topography.               The large scale surface velocity field will be determined by                    re-surveying sites in the GISP II site selection grid and the mass              balance of the region will be computed.  All these results will be              used along with a finite-difference numerical flowline model to                 calculate the stress, strain rate and velocity fields along the                 flowline, and the depth-age relation at the borehole sites.
