Daniela Jansen

Daniela Jansen is a Geophysicist and Glaciologist at the Alfred Wegener Institute Helmholtz Centre for Polar and Marine Research. Her research focuses on radar stratigraphy, ice rheology, and microdynamical processes in polar ice sheets and ice shelves, particularly in Antarctica and Greenland. She leads projects on ice flow dynamics, subglacial processes, and ice core analysis, contributing to understanding ice sheet stability and climate interactions.

• Affiliations: Alfred Wegener Institute (AWI), Helmholtz-Gemeinschaft
• Key Collaborations: EastGRIP Ice Core Project, NEGIS (Northeast Greenland Ice Stream) studies, Antarctic ice shelf monitoring

Her work integrates field measurements, radar sounding, and numerical modeling to investigate ice deformation, basal conditions, and englacial structures. Notable contributions include studies on rift propagation in Larsen C Ice Shelf and the structural analysis of ice stream margins via airborne radar data.

Publications span over 100 peer-reviewed articles, focusing on glaciological processes, remote sensing techniques, and ice core microstructure. She has advised numerous collaborative projects but no formal student list is available.
