Recent paper out in The Cryosphere! Important numerical considerations for anyone trying to implement calving into a Stokes model.

[The Cryosphere @EGU_TC]

New article: Brief communication: Time step dependence (and fixes) in Stokes simulations of calving ice shelves https://t.co/SOGj0K0vfq

The OGGM-Edu website just got upgraded! @LizzUltee wrote two class activities based on the oggm-edu interactive apps "Glacier Gallery" and "World Glacier Explorer". You can check them out here (https://t.co/nUImwJM6q9), and here is a short summary 👇

Proud of the students in my undergrad Earth system modeling class @GeorgiaTechEAS, who just submitted @github repos for their final project, implementing numerical PDE models of real-world geoscience problem (from scratch!). A 🧵 of a few of the projects

[Alex Robel @iceclimate]

First student-led paper from the GT Ice & Climate group (based on undergrad work no less)! 🎉 ❄️

[Johan Gaume @johan_gaume]

Two-year postdoc position in #computational #mechanics and #arctic #glaciology offered at @uzh_geo X @epflENAC 👇

This year, Taka Ito and I taught a pilot course @GeorgiaTechEAS with an emphasis on practical approaches to math and computation for geoscience graduate students. All the lecture material and code is freely available @github! https://t.co/Divmz1sIjR

[Dr Natasha Dowey @DrNatashaDowey]

For those of you teaching introductory undergraduate geoscience modules who want to integrate indigenous knowledges, here are some Eos articles that are short, written in plain English, with case studies, that introduce some important decol concepts- good for first year level:

@BassisJeremy Thank you Jeremy! It really was meant to be.

[CPMLVandy @CpmlVandy]

PhD and postdoc opportunity in computational fracture mechanics available.

[U-M Climate & Space @umclasp]

‘Doomsday Glacier’ may be more stable than initially feared. A new study from @umclasp Asst. Prof. Jeremy @Bassis and co-authors @crawfisha, and @Ice_BBerg sheds light on the future of the massive Thwaites Glacier.

@LizzUltee @GeorgiaTechEAS @iceclimate Congratulations Lizz! Can't wait to see what cool results come!

[Brandon Berg @Ice_BBerg]

@iceclimate Science unclear...too distracted by Grogu.

My Environment and Society class is wrapping up for the semester. Envrio Twitter, what is the most important thing you think my students need to know about #environment #enviro #conservation #nature #climatechange?

[Brandon Berg @Ice_BBerg]

And many more adventures to come!

PhD position available in glaciology/oceanography at the University of Edinburgh.

I am advertising a fully-funded PhD project starting in Autumn 2021, working with me, Pete Nienow & Fiamma Straneo.... (1/3)
