The International Glaciological Society will hold an International  Symposium entitled "Five Decades of Radioglaciology" in 2019. The main symposium will take place from Tuesday morning, 9 July, until the afternoo n of Friday 12 July. On Monday 8 July there will be a pre- symposium short- course on ice penetrating radar science and engineering for early-career re searchers. Also on Monday 8 July, side meetings will also be scheduled for collaborative radar sounding projects including BedMap3 and the SCAR AntArc hitecture project.

Radio-echo sounding is a powerful geophysical te chnique for directly characterizing the subsurface conditions of terrestria l and planetary ice masses at the local, regional and global scales. As a r esult, a wide array of orbital, airborne, towed and in situ instruments, pl atforms and data analysis approaches for radar sounding have been developed , applied or proposed. Terrestrially, airborne radar-sounding data have bee n used in physical glaciology to observe ice thickness, basal topography an d englacial layers for more than five decades. More recently, radar-soundin g data have also been exploited to estimate the extent and configuration of subglacial water, the ice-sheet surface, the geometry of subglacial bedfor ms, the spatial variation of basal melt, englacial temperature, and the tra nsition between frozen and thawed bed. Planetary radar sounders have been u sed or are planned to observe the subsurface and near-surface conditions of Mars, Earth’s Moon, comets and the icy moons of Jupiter. These instruments provide critical subsurface context for surface-sensing, particle, and pot ential-field instruments in planetary exploration payloads. This symposium will discuss advances in radar-sounding systems, mission concepts, signal p rocessing, data analysis, modeling and scientific interpretation.
