Out today in Science Advances 📄Modeling the Breakup of Tabular Icebergs: advances.sciencemag.org/content/6/51/e… Tabular icebergs deliver vast amounts of freshwater to the Southern Ocean. We introduce a representation of fracturing to improve the simulation of these giant bergs Scripps Institution of Oceanography

The latest #MachineLearning iceberg collaboration with LEOC - Laboratório de Estudos dos Oceanos e Clima colleagues is published ISPRS J. Photogramm Remote Sens! Encouraging comparison to operational U.S. National Ice Center product & Weddell Sea freshwater input/mass decrease ~683 Gt/yr. FreePDF until 23Feb: authors.elsevier.com/c/1cMa63I9x1cg…


We love to see what our beanies get up to once they've flown the nest. Here they are being sported by Seth Campbell and Kristin Schild We have lots left at Big Yellow so please order yours now. Perfect for these chilly days and nights. Just drop us an email or a DM.



For all of my glacial geology friends interested in abrupt climate change- this is a great PhD opportunity to join an awesome team of scientists in IRELAND!! And reach out to Margaret Jackson with questions- she’s super accessible!


hey #AGU22! if you are trying to join our Advances in Glacier Hydrology zoom poster session: we are in breakout room 25! ❄️ 💦 🧊 🌊 @colinrmeyer Asa Rennermalm

Brave talk by @IceSheetMike about Antarctic PQ process. U.S. National Science Foundation - we need to revamp this process!



This morning I, along with ~30 fellow senior polar scientists, sent an open letter to U.S. National Science Foundation advocating for reform to our Antarctic physical qualifying (PQ) process. At best, it is inefficient and frustrating. At worst, it is discriminatory. 1/4
