Headed to Greenland for fieldwork and teaching. First to Ilulissat to join a Climate Narratives team at 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 alum Dave Purnell have been helping me get ready. And next week, has teamed up with for a graduate school on the 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 on post depositional modification of isotopes in the snow pack of the . 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 ! (not all feedbacks are positive...)

Always exciting to hear what other institutes are working on with regard to processes.
