During the Antarctic campaign 2007-2008 we did fieldwork on Johnsons and Hurd glaciers, Livingston Island, with logistic support from the Spanish Antarctic Station Juan Carlos I. The participating team members were Ricardo Rodríguez and Rafael Dargallo (first phase), and Javier Lapazaran (second phase). The glaciological works included snow pits, differential GPS positioning (for velocity computations) and accumulation-ablation measurements on the net of poles covering Johnsons-Hurd, regular maintenance of this net, topographic measurements on Hurd glacier and differential GPS positioning of the glacier fronts.
