Stoked to be joining @icy_pete , @US_IceDrilling folks, and the rest of the team on Mt Waddington! Great views of camp and the drill tent as the helicopter came in this morning.
@brianmenounos@HakaiInstitute @HakaiGeospatial Awesome work Brian! How did you have a “before” shot of this slide - is this an area you already survey regularly?
I'm looking for a #PhD student focused on #weather, #climate, & #cryosphere at @UMaine! The student will also have opportunities to be involved with some of our efforts at @JuneauIcefield and the @Wrangells! Check out the full advertisement & team here: https://t.co/RNgcjGBnLe
No 💨 so up goes the big drill ⛺️! Amazing effort by the field team @COLDEX_STC including @marksjulia2 , @austincarter642 , @AbigailHudak , @JohnMorganManos, and others not on X! Which geologic epoch will we recover this year?!
This is from the Mendenhall River Floods in Alaska.
This happened over a span of six hours. 😧
Can you imagine watching that happen to your home knowing there’s nothing that can save it?
That’s a wrap folks. Combatant Col 2023 ice core is on its way to @IceCicl in a freezer truck. Such a great feeling to be successful finishing an awesome season with an incredible team.
Combatant Col and the ice coring team as seen by the @HakaiInstitute@UNBC Airborne Coastal Observatory -ACO on 26 June, 2023. Mt Waddington for scale...
We’re kicking off our Voices for Science workshop today with our colleagues at @AGU_SciComm and scientists from across North America. Learn more about the program at https://t.co/VOmge4biIW
Stefansson Fellow @LKirkpatrick98 checks in from S. Pole doing research with ice-penetrating radar & ice cores as part of PhD @UW_ESS. More about the Stefansson Fellowship at https://t.co/uSSlW6k3Xq

There’s some irony that my most dramatic flight delay on the Antarctic field season is on the Christchurch-Seattle leg. Wishing everyone up north well through this crazy weather.
✅The South Pole-based airborne geophysics team has completed science for the season, finishing a broad survey of the southern flank of East Antarctica's Dome A! Ice structure, thickness, & bedrock data will help plan future surveys for finding ancient climate records in the ice.
@rizkilluminati Can’t tell if you’re joking there, but spending a month doing geophysics at the South Pole only further convinced me the world is indeed round. 🌏
My first Antarctic season has come to a close. My single greatest takeaway was the sheer scale of the East Antarctic Ice Sheet. I’d spent plenty of time looking at maps, but kilometres-thick ice stretching beyond the horizon in all directions still blew my mind.
