Abstract
As part of the GGU programme for the regional mapping ofthe hydroelectric potential of West Greenland, glaciological investigations were started at the Qamanârssûp sermia in 1979. The glacier is situated at the innermost part of Godthåbsfjord (Kangersuneq) and is an outlet glacier from the Inland Ice proper, running west down to about 60 m above sea level. From the snout up to the 1500 m contour line the area has been measured to be 146 km2. Above this height the boundaries of the drainage area have not yet been adequately defined, so no area measurement has been attempted.Keywords
