The work of scientists at the world's northernmost research station in Ny-Alesund, Norway, has become vitally important as climate change ramps up and researchers hoping to harvest ice cores are finding glaciers inundated by water https://t.co/8rIHi5rMMN

[The Nobel Prize @NobelPrize]

This year’s economic sciences laureate Claudia Goldin showed that female participation in the labour market did not have an upward trend over a 200 year period, but instead forms a U-shaped curve.

The participation of married women decreased with the transition from an agrarian to an industrial society in the early nineteenth century, but then started to increase with the growth of the service sector in the early twentieth century. Goldin explained this pattern as the result of structural change and evolving social norms regarding women’s responsibilities for home and family.

Dislocation of the largest Austrian glacier over the last decade! ❄️🔥
A lake replaced the floodplain where numerous early Holocene subfossil woods were found since the 1990s.
The tongue is no longer fed by any accumulation.
