Abstract

Summary

The article stages the results of surveys conducted in 2018 in the Pirin Mountain in order to evaluate geophysical methods for studying glacier thickness and structure. Two perennial snowfields are known in Pirin and the test investigations were carried out on one of them, situated in the area of Golyam Kazan. Ground penetrating radar (GPR) and 2D electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) were selected for the survey.
