 To date, the West Greenland Glacier Survey 

 has extensively surveyed from the ground 26 ma- 

 jor iceberg producing glaciers. One additional 

 glacier was visited and surveyed with sextant 

 measurements. A total of 59 outlet glaciers have 

 been photo-documented with color film from low 

 flying helicopters and the entire West Greenland 

 coastal region photographed twice by aircraft 

 from 8000 feet. Six glaciers have been revisited 

 after a three year interval. The glacier names 

 and the years visited are listed in Table C-l. 



In addition to the geographic documentation 

 cited above, the significant accomplishments of 

 this survey are : 



1. Through comparisons of present surveys 

 with historical data, a general retreat of the tide- 

 water glaciers of West Greenland is documented. 

 Some glaciers have retreated as much as 13 kil- 

 ometers in 22 years as shown by the changes in 

 Hayes Glacier, Figure C-3, to cite one example.
