🚨📰Brand new paper! Our PI, Lauren,
@alielepp, and others discuss recent advances in geological studies that focus on providing process-based information on subglacial hydrology and their relevance to theory, numerical models, and future research needs. https://t.co/BfD6yTDsjF

Exciting opportunity for a Postdoctoral Research Associate to join our team! We’re looking for someone to aid in the integration of multi-proxy analyses including physical sedimentology, stratigraphy, micropaleontology, geochemistry, and geochronology...

[Ice & Ocean Group at UVA @ice_uva]

Then catch @mmglacialgeo's poster "Outcrop perspectives on spatially variable retreat of the marine-terminating southern Cordilleran Ice Sheet" at board 0456 of poster hall A until 12:30pm.

[Ice & Ocean Group at UVA @ice_uva]

Come see the first presentation of our group at AGU! Medha Prakash's talk "Morphometrics of terrestrial eskers and Martian sinuous ridges reveal persistent pathways of subglacial meltwater drainage" is happening at 3:58pm in room S106b.

[Ice & Ocean Group at UVA @ice_uva]

First of today is Tahi Wiggins' talk "Morphometry of glacigenic and periglacial lakes across Canada" at 9:22am in room S405a.

[Twila Moon, PhD @twilamoon]

Seeking university/community college educators to test new classroom curriculum during 2022/23 school year!

Bring #Greenland into your classroom with 360 interactive environments, authentic data, and GIS. Full implementation support and stipend provided!

[Ice & Ocean Group at UVA @ice_uva]

New paper!! This amazing new work from @alielepp covers different drainge styles in the subglacial environment beneath Thwaites Glacier, geochemistry of sediments and some amazing CT imagery. Check it out ⬇️⬇️⬇️

[Alie Lepp @alielepp]

The first paper of my PhD work is out!!

We ask: What do sediment cores recovered offshore @ThwaitesGlacier (TG) reveal about subglacial meltwater drainage through the pre-satellite era?

[Alie Lepp @alielepp]

EXCITING NEWS -- I've been selected as a 2022 Fellow with @COVES_Fellows 🎉

After 2 weeks of interviews, I've been matched with the VA Marine Resource Commission.

Summertime looks like coastal resilience and state-level science policy - can't wait!

Brilliant new paper by our very own @marionmck_ !!! Check out the highlights in her thread below and make sure to read the paper for details on mapping techniques and interpretations!

[UVa EnviSci @uvaevsc]

Attn @uvaevsc undergrads! Interested in geoscience, how sediments can record the history of the Earth, and free lunch? Check out this two part workshop, hosted by @icy_simkins!
