Check out our latest work, now in press in Arctic! Dr. Jackie Dawson, Dr Alison Cook, Jean Holloway, PhD, & Luke Copland analysed how the ice strengthening of vessels operating in the Canadian Arctic has changed over the last 30 years. journalhosting.ucalgary.ca/index.php/arct…

Newly published Ice Climate Normals for 1991-2020 identify changes in Canadian sea and lake #ice over time. The findings show shorter ice seasons and an overall decline of ice in our waters. Learn more: canada.ca/en/environment…

#Copernicus for #iceberg monitoring Iceberg 🧊 #A76 continues its journey in the #Antarctic 🇦🇶 Ocean ⬇️ Thanks to #Sentinel1 🇪🇺🛰️ radar data, it is possible to monitor its passage east of Clarence Island (images from 27 July to 25 August)

We measured frontal ablation from all ~1500 marine-terminating glaciers in the Northern Hemisphere (excluding the ice sheet), for the first time. The Northern Hemisphere had a frontal ablation rate of 52 Gt per year for 2010-2020. Our paper is out now.🧵rdcu.be/cXlex

14 years ago today this amazing/terrible ship sprung a leak. Half an olympic swimming pool of water came in in 30 mins. Our Mayday call went unanswered. 100 brilliant sailors and a few brave civilians (who were expecting a better ride than this!) saved the day. Cheers🥃

Guess what? More ships are operating in Canada's Arctic. I know you already know that. But guess what else? The vast majority are not ice strenghtened. Ten years ago it was the opposite. What does this mean you ask? You tell me!!! journalhosting.ucalgary.ca/index.php/arct…

A new iceberg the size of Greater London has calved from Antarctica's Brunt Ice Shelf. Last night, the crack Chasm-1 fully extended through the 150m thick ice - a decade after BAS scientists first detected that cracks in the ice sheet were growing. 1/2

It was great to have the SAGES community at IASC #ASSW2024 Science Day! 🌍 The day's theme of "Arctic Coasts" encompassed talks, a panel discussion, presentations by IASC Award Winners, and a keynote presentation by the Chair of the US Arctic Research Commission.

🚨That’s a wrap! The SAGES #AnnualScienceMeeting 2024 has finished! Thank you to all of our amazing speakers, poster presenters, chairs, and of course wonderful attendees! Truly showcasing some of the best of Scottish science 🌍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🔬🛰️❄️🔥🪐

Here's an ice-breaker! Did you know that centuries-old multi-year ice in the Arctic region is now moving southwards into shipping routes in the global north? The changing ice conditions have sparked a warning from scientists. Read more: sams.ac.uk/news/sams-news… #MarineScience

Thick sea ice is flowing into the Northwest Passage, making Arctic shipping more difficult and complicating predictions that melting ice due to climate change will open a shorter route between oceans. newscientist.com/article/243933…

⛴️Sea ice choke points reduce the length of the shipping season in the Northwest Passage! Check this new OA paper by Dr Alison Cook et al.! 📎nature.com/articles/s4324…. ESPG Scottish Association for Marine Science Environment Canada Dr. Jackie Dawson Jean Holloway, PhD

An increased amount of thick sea ice flowing south from the Arctic Ocean shortened the ice-free shipping season in several parts of the Northwest Passage between 2007 and 2021, according to an analysis in Communications Earth & Environment. Alison Cook and colleagues suggest this could mean
