Scientific equipment measuring the meltwater from the Russell Galcier that drains the Greenland Ice Sheet 26 km inland from Kangerlussuaq. Like most Greenland glaciers it is both receeding and speeding up as a result of global warming and the rivers that drain them are becoming more swollen by greater quantities of melt water
