#IGSWPG brought researchers and academics from around the world to discuss the important role sea ice plays in climate, ecosystems and Indigenous cultures.
CMO Construction Update: Penn-co Construction are continuing construction of the first phase of the CMO. In the next few weeks they will continue work on the inside of the building, installing final fixtures and painting. The building is scheduled to be complete in Summer 2020.

SSMI is coming off the ice today before Polarstern leaves the ice. Best not to risk it falling into a lead. This makes the end of its measurements during MOSAiC @umanitoba @ES_UCL @NSIDC @MOSAiCArctic

Since the beginning of the year @MOSAiCArctic expedition has drifted faster than ice in any of the previous ten years and twice as fast as Nansen’s Fram drift in 1896. Read more: https://t.co/3G0oXwW4Vk

Our drone specialist Maddie Harasyn recently gave an online seminar about the UAV (Unmanned Ariel Vehicle) research conducted at CEOS and what kinds of data UAVs are able to collect. The webinar is free to watch with registration at: https://t.co/uFg9h1z4YM
Cool to hear that our paper on the anomalously thick ice cover around Newfoundland during spring 2017 that affected the local maritime industry was among the top 10% of downloaded GRL (@AGU_Cryo) papers last year. Paper is Open Access if interested.

Did you know the Wallace Building (formerly of the Faculty of Science) was named after the first professor of Geology and Mineralogy, Dr. Robert Charles Wallace.
