Still 💫 from the banger INSTANT conference last week in Trieste. Hopping science, great hangs. Thanks flocolleoni, Tim Naish, and the INSTANT team for the exciting science!

I agree with this in terms of adaptation planing & decision making - we know enough. We must adapt to at least 20 cm of global SLR by 2060 & 50 cm by 2100. The rate of future sea level rise depends on us and the Antarctic ice sheet, but we must strive to understand AIS response.

Fingers crossed for great flying conditions as we head south next week to join SWAIS2C field operations. Aim to collect data to explore environmental thresholds the may cause a 'cold cavity switch' when crossed.

4 billion people at risk from sea level rise, melting glaciers and fresh water availability. The polar ice sheets, glaciers, and Arctic permafrost all have irreversible thresholds at 1.5-2C of global warming

We are blessed on Holland America Line #oosterdam having such a talented, experienced & knowledgeable #Antarctica team on board. An immensely fascinating & scientific talk this afternoon by Tim Naish about “Unlocking the Secrets of the Ice House”. I learnt soo much, thank you 🙏 #cruise

The 1.5C global heating target was always a dream, but its demise doesn’t signal doom for climate action #climate #climatecrisis #SDG13 theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
