Chart from my live on #Newsnight just now. Right or wrong, there’s no doubt the UK is increasingly an outlier in our Covid response.

After nine expeditions to #StoreGlacier, we're starting to understand the mechanism of fast flowing glaciers in Greenland. RT and follow us for updates: erc-responder.eu

Here is another cool glacier study from the latest issue of Science Advances. Could that mean slip as well as deformation of ice is important? (We think so.) A slip law for hard-bedded glaciers derived from observed bed topography …nces-sciencemag-org.ezp.lib.cam.ac.uk/content/7/20/e…

Lots of rain in SE Greenland. Tasiilaq, only station on the SE coast that reports precipitation, observed 81.3 mm in 48 hours, resulting in quite a booster to the #SurfaceMassBalance. Reminder: SMB is difference between snow/rain and runoff, calving is not taken into account.

Whoa! Lots of rain in SE Greenland! Our perspective (as glaciologists working on the ice sheet) is that rain means clouds, warm & moist air, and therefore lots of melt too. Hopefully this mass gain is a real one.

Interesting new findings from DOMINOS project and the Thwaites Glacier collaboration. Fortunately marine ice cliffs maybe more stable than thought. But a new key question is ice flux @ thickness ... #Antarctic #icesheet

Kudos TJ Young Scott Polar Research Institute for showing how we can rapidly and accurately measure crystal fabric orientation in ice from polarimetric radar measurements. Awesome! TJ Young 楊敦然 #ThwaitesGlacier #WAIS #Antarctica tc.copernicus.org/articles/15/41…

The return to fieldwork offered the full spectrum Greenland is well known for: serene landscapes, stunning sunsets, challenging work ... #arctic #fieldwork #science #greenland

In “postcards from a world on fire”, The New York Times uses photos, clips, graphs, cartoons and interactive displays to communicate the impact of climate change in each of the 193 member states of the United Nations. That’s both frightening and brilliant. nytimes.com/postcards?smid…

What happens when meltwater on the Greenland Ice Sheet drops to the bed? We've measured the melt rates at the bottom of Store Glacier and they are astonishingly high. Teaser: Base of the Greenland ice sheet is melting faster than we thought newscientist.com/article/230903…

Melting at the base of the Greenland Ice Sheet is occurring more rapidly than previously estimated, according to a study. In PNAS: ow.ly/7gyE50I3Ev2

Our work on Store Glacier shows basal melting in Greenland is (quite a lot) faster than expected. Kudos TJ Young 楊敦然 for taking on a risky PhD topic. The findings are remarkable.
