Greenland Icesheet Monitoring Network - GLISN Virtual Network
IRIS has a new virtual network called _GLISN (http://www.iris.edu/mda/_GLISN) where we are now archiving data from stations collaborating with new IRIS funding for the Greenland Icesheet Monitoring Network.

The GLISN virtual network will be dynamic and expanding. The map below only shows stations as of Oct 2009. Please refer to http://www.iris.edu/gmap/_GLISN to get an updated list of stations.
