Headed to Greenland for fieldwork and teaching. First to Ilulissat to join a Climate Narratives team at #Illu Art and Science Hub. One goal there is to build a sea level and tides monitoring station using GNSS-IR and an array of low-cost GPS antennas. @BillMinarik and EPS #McGill alum Dave Purnell have been helping me get ready. And next week, #ACDCsummerschool has teamed up with #GRISO for a graduate school on the #GreenlandIceSheet at Disko Island research station. More soon.

Petermann Glacier is a magnificent outlet glacier Greenland and it drains about 4% of the ice sheet.
The title says it all: in spite of what you might have heard, it's not growing. If you're interested in finding out how we know it's not, even though some people think it might be and what is likely next for this glacier, read on.

Bergen weather doing what it does best - but not dampening the spirits of Laura Dietrich who successfully defended an excellent thesis from the University of Bergen #Bjerknessenteret on post depositional modification of isotopes in the snow pack of the #Greenland #IceSheer. Some very nice and interesting insights into the vapour flux and importance of latent heat and sublimation too.
Well done Laura

Another interesting paper I had not previously seen: Sinet et al., 2023 show that collapse of the West Antarctic ice sheet could potentially stabilise the AMOC and the #GreenlandIceSheet ! (not all feedbacks are positive...)

Hello #Fediverse !
An #Introduction post from the scientists behind the #PolarPortal - a danish collaboration between the Danishs Meteorological Institute, the Danish Technical University and GEUS with accurate near real-time #Climate data on the state of the #cryosphere in the #Arctic.
Follow us for data + visualisations of #ArcticSeaIce #Weather #GreenlandIceSheet #SMB and #GRACE / #GRACEFO mass budget as well as #permafrost +#Iceberg processes

Planning #Fieldwork in NW #Greenland and stumbled over this stunning #Sentinel2 image from September last year processed on #SentinelHub #EOBrowser
Look at that cute little #cyclone by #ThuleAirBase

Here is an interesting piece published in Danish popular science media @videnskabdk : a lake on the #GreenlandIceSheet was observed to drain and disappear - nothing unusual in that, but this time it happened in winter with air temperatures well below 0C.
Certainly telling us something interesting about the hydrology of the #glacier in this part of the #IceSheet

Colleague at the Danish #GreenlandIceSheet seminar points out that #FediScience can be read in Danish as "Fed I" Science - a danglicism that could be interpreted as either "fat in science" or "Cool in science" (as in that's really cool science!)
I know which interpretation I prefer...

A new #ERCsynergy project from #CopenhagenUmiversity with Belgian partners: #Green2Ice looking to understand just how old the #GreenlandIceSheet is

Fascinating talk from J P Steffensen of #nielsBohrInstitute on the ravages that a 2 year #COVID19 gap in visits to #EGRIPcamp.
The #icecore science trenches needed completely reconstructing, it took 2.mobths to dig out the camp, all done by hand!
Amazingly they even managed to start taking #EGRIP ice core again...

Good morning all. It's the first Thursday after New Year which means it's time to hop on the bike for a trip to our friends at the Danish Technical University #DTU for the annual danish #GreenlandIceSheet seminar.
Always exciting to hear what other institutes are working on with regard to #IceSheet processes.

More #palaeoclimate another tab open on the #Nature article about 2 million year old #DNA in #Greenland.
I have a lot of questions about this article which I hope to be able to ask at the annual danish #GreenlandIceSheet seminar on Thursday...

The #WorldMeteorologicalOrganization published the provisional #StateOfTheClimate 2022 a few days ago. I have contributed with mass balance data from the #GreenlandIceSheet based on Mankoff et al. (https://doi.org/10.5194/essd-13-5001-2021), of which I am a co-author.
