Eliza Dawson

PhD from @radioglaciology lab at @StanfordDoerr | Ice sheet modeling & radar geophysics 👩‍💻... or catch me 🏊‍♀️ 🚴🏼‍♀️ 🏃‍♀️

[Eliza Dawson @KeepingIceCool]

It’s an honor to be selected for a NOAA C&GC postdoc fellowship! I’m excited to work with Winnie Chu at @GeorgiaTechEAS on integrating radar observations into ice sheet models 📡🧊🇦🇶

[UCAR CPAESS @UCAR_CPAESS]

A hearty congratulations to our 2024 NOAA Climate & Global Change Postdoctoral Fellows! Welcome Talia Anderson, Holly Olivarez, Yaowei Li, and Eliza Dawson! https://t.co/duDa7Cr28f @NOAAClimate #NOAAcgc @talia_and @YaoweiLi6 @KeepingIceCool @holivarez19

Here’s a nice story on my recent paper!

[Stanford Woods Institute @StanfordWoods]

🧊 Stanford study warns that even stable regions in East Antarctica are facing meltdown risks. In particular, the Wilkes Subglacial Basin has the potential to raise global sea levels by more than 10 feet. https://t.co/FztaBBgxqD @StanfordDoerr @theAGU

[Eliza Dawson @KeepingIceCool]

Good way to end the week! It’s finally out in GRL 📡🧊 In this paper we analyze radar sounding data to investigate the subglacial thermal conditions in part of East Antarctica https://t.co/MFwzCgyW5w

[Eliza Dawson @KeepingIceCool]

Showing how we can infer frozen and thawed bed conditions from radar sounding observations... keep an eye out for the paper! 👀

[Eliza Dawson @KeepingIceCool]

Fun and icy times! 🤩🥶

[UF Gator Glaciology @GatorGlaciology]

It was fun to catch up with the @RadioGlaciology crew in Svalbard! (I'm on the right)

[Icefin @IcefinRobot]

Icefin's first science paper is out, part of a pair of papers from @GlacierThwaites ! https://t.co/Om4SYee7Wt

[Eliza Dawson @KeepingIceCool]

Another AGU presentation in the books… thanks to everyone for the great discussions today!! #AGU22

[Thomas Teisberg @ThomasTeisberg]

Tim Didion and @abc7newsbayarea covered PEREGRINE, our UAV-borne ice-penetrating radar system! https://t.co/46f4zq3aFl

Could thawing of the bottom of the ice sheet change what we think about the future of East Antarctica? And how might that thawing happen? https://t.co/nNPP5imJ6J

By @KeepingIceCool plus
@MantelliElisa @AntarcticSciAus and others

Good Qs

[Eliza Dawson @KeepingIceCool]

@Raz_Miah_ @NatureComms @RadioGlaciology Basal temperatures can change in response to changes in the ice sheet geometry and flow. Also thermo-frictional feedbacks could play a role in driving changes as work by @MantelliElisa shows.

[Eliza Dawson @KeepingIceCool]

It finally happened!! My first paper of my PhD is out in @NatureComms 🥳 showing how the Antarctic ice sheet - and especially parts of E. Ant. - could experience mass loss due to basal thawing… check it out here!! https://t.co/tQuGGVeB38 @RadioGlaciology

[Eliza Dawson @KeepingIceCool]

@raventurelli @NatureComms @RadioGlaciology Thanks so much!!

[Eliza Dawson @KeepingIceCool]

@MLMaclennan @NatureComms @RadioGlaciology Thanks!! and same to you :)

[Eliza Dawson @KeepingIceCool]

Had a great conversation with @bberwyn about our study on basal thawing in Antarctica. Check out the story!

[Bob Berwyn @bberwyn]

Where Thick Ice Sheets in Antarctica Meet the Ground, Small Changes Could Have Big Consequences. https://t.co/6ji7nGgXjp

[Eliza Dawson @KeepingIceCool]

Thank you to the @stanforddoerr communications team and especially Dee Tucker for this excellent interview 🎉

[Stanford University @Stanford]

"You can’t necessarily assume that everywhere that’s currently frozen will stay frozen."

A new study, authored by @StanfordDoerr's Dustin Schroeder, identifies areas in Antarctica that could become major contributors to sea-level rise. https://t.co/wtqOTOHDza

[Eliza Dawson @KeepingIceCool]

@bmrocean @NatureComms @RadioGlaciology Thank you!!

[Eliza Dawson @KeepingIceCool]

@Kai_Glacier @RadioGlaciology Yes a new drone mounted radar system that @ThomasTeisberg is developing

[Eliza Dawson @KeepingIceCool]

A busy day for @RadioGlaciology testing new radar systems on Vatnajökull Ice cap

[Eliza Dawson @KeepingIceCool]

@ruth_mottram Thanks! Yeah I use the ice plug definition from Mengel and Levermann 2014, which shows the ice plugs are patches that, if removed, could drive a lot of SLR… in my work I show that the ice plugs might be vulnerable to basal thawing

[Eliza Dawson @KeepingIceCool]

Paper coming out sept 14th! 🧊🌡 🇦🇶
