Specialization and Research Interests

Dr. Lingle is a cooperating faculty member of the Department of Geology and Geophysics. His research interests include:

  • measurement of regional elevation changes and mapping of surface topography on the Antarctic ice sheet with satellite radar altimetry and interpretation of the results in terms of ice-sheet dynamics;


  • time- and temperature-dependent numerical modeling of the flow of the Antarctic ice sheet and its response to changing climate;


  • and studies of the glaciers and ice fields of Alaska and Yukon, including the 1993-1995 surge of Bering Glacier and Bagley Icefield in the St. Elias Mountains, using satellite synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imagery.
