AB The project “The Monte Perdido Glacier: Monitoring the glacial dynamic and the associated cryospheric processes asindicators of global change” (National Park´s 2013 Fund) aims to study the recent dynamic and degradation of this icemass, using geomatic and geophysical techniques in order to estimate thickness and potential volumetric variations.We present the first ground penetrating radar survey, carried out on the northwest section of the lower Monte PerdidoGlacier. The survey was conducted along a 270 m transect, using three antennas of different frequencies -500, 200 and50 MHz- that enabled us to study the glacier´s structure at various maximum depths and spatial resolutions. The resultsshow a first section composed by several seasonal snow layers (2015-2016 winter and spring), a clear snow/ice transition layer, an ice layer and a final basal zone characterised by typical sub-glacial till sediments.
