  abstract = {{W}e apply the magnetic resonance sounding ({MRS}) method to investigate a firn aquifer in the south-east region of the {G}reenland ice sheet. {O}ur study aims to delineate and estimate the volume of the recently discovered water stored within the firn (compacted snow) that remains liquid throughout the year. {W}e develop and test successfully a methodology for joint use of {MRS} and ground-penetrating radar ({GPR}). {T}his non-invasive geophysical approach is particularly well-adapted to glacier conditions and has a promising future for in situ investigation of water distribution in glaciers. {A}t our field site, {MRS} showed an aquifer located at variable depths between 20 and 30 m beneath the ice-sheet surface. {A}t the monitoring site, both {MRS} and {GPR} show an increase in the water volume stored between {A}pril 2015 and {J}uly 2016. {MRS} estimates suggest that the volume increased by approximately 28%.},
