Bathymetry of Valdez Glacier lake

Description

The Valdez Glacier is a 33 km-long (20 mi) valley glacier located in the Chugach Mountains of south-central Alaska. The glacier occupies a deeply-incised U-shaped valley and terminates into Valdez Glacier lake, a proglacial lake located about 10 km (6 mi) east of the town of Valdez. Valdez Glacier lake is the dynamic, natural reservoir from which Valdez Glacier Stream originates, and plays an important role in modulating the discharge of water into Valdez Glacier Stream. This data release provides bathymetric measurements collected on July 3, 2012.
