As I'm sure you're aware, the physical properties of firn differ quite significantly as compared with ice. I'd be happy to share data with you relevant to the explosions. Please email me and we can talk about specifics, etc: jwalter@pmc.ucsc.edu. Dale-

I can perform hydro-code modeling of the explosive detonating and its interaction with the ice. Do you have any data you can share on the the size of the crater produced in ice versus the charge weight used.
