We measured frontal ablation from all ~1500 marine-terminating glaciers in the Northern Hemisphere (excluding the ice sheet), for the first time. The Northern Hemisphere had a frontal ablation rate of 52 Gt per year for 2010-2020. Our paper is out now.🧵https://t.co/r5xXhb5zqL
So I work in the Arctic. I see students that are shipped there without first aid training, without proper gear, and without experience and sent out on the land. I can’t believe this still happens.
Also, this is my 5th field season and I finally have enough -

Check out our new @JGREarthSurface paper below!
We use a dense record of winter surface velocities combined with ice thickness and bed elevation data to identify a shift in flow type on Trinity and Wykeham Glaciers - two of the fastest flowing glaciers in the Canadian Arctic.

Lots of anecdotes about people getting COVID at in-person conferences. I went to one last week in Boston and next week am going to one in Portugal. Both require negative testing for international travel.
Here’s how I plan to not get COVID.
Excited to share the first paper of my PhD which has just been published in @JGREarthSurface!
