The Alfred Wegener Institute, Helmholtz Centre for Polar and Marine Research (AWI), has conducted airborne radar campaigns since 1994 across Antarctica and Greenland, utilizing six different radar systems to study ice sheets and their interactions with climate, ocean and the solid Earth. In this presentation we describe AWI’s airborne radar systems and their deployments over the Greenland and Antarctic Ice Sheet. Moreover, we summarize application and usage radar systems, which provided crucial insights into e.g, ice dynamics, mass balance, and ancient landscapes buried beneath the ice. To support scientific progress, AWI made its airborne radar data publicly accessible through the Radar Data over Polar Ice Sheets viewer hosted by the Marine Data Portal (https://marine-data.de/viewers/) and PANGAEA (https://doi.org/10.1594/PANGAEA.972094), ensuring compliance with FAIR principles.
