With a trio of smaller satellites that can each detect 26 wavelengths of light and thermal energy, the Landsat Next mission is expected to look very different from its predecessors that have been observing Earth for 50 years. Read the #LandsatHeadline: usgs.gov/landsat-missio…

Great presentations today of our ICE Lab members Connor Dean & taurrhis ❄️🛰️ And very cool to learn as well about the many other grad projects going on at UVic Geography Aikaterini Tavri lauren

Exciting first glimpses of Skysat's 0.5m resolution images of supraglacial lakes for a project @PolarFronts and I are undertaking! This stunning capture over NE Greenland (Jul 31) showcases a ~6km long lake. Concurrent acquisitions of X-, C-, and L-band SAR are in progress! #SAR

QGreenland, led by Twila Moon, PhD, is a free and open-source mapping tool to support interdisciplinary Greenland-focused research, teaching, decision making, and collaboration. It is modeled after the Norwegian Polar Institute’s Quantarctica tool. Learn more: nsidc.org/our-research/f…

Hoping to better understand some aspects surrounding these wild cards with my research, especially their behaviors when buried in snow/ice during melt or winter seasons, leveraging multi-frequency SAR for new insights 🛰️🛰️🛰️

This #FieldworkFriday brings us to the Greenland Ice Sheet! EarthScope Engineer Marianne Okal was recently out on the ice helping retrieve EarthScope GNSS stations and additional sensors from a project studying supraglacial lakes. Some truly spectacular scenery! 📷 Marianne Okal
