@HeidiSevestre I saw your book today at ULB university book store! :)

[Ankit Pramanik @polarankit]

It was nice visiting NCPOR, giving a talk and interacting with scientists. Many thanks @ncaor_goa @TMeloth for organizing the seminar!

[NCPOR @ncaor_goa]

Dr. Ankit Pramanik, Postdoctoral Researcher from Universitѐ Libre de Bruxelles, Brussels, visited NCPOR and gave a Seminar talk on the topic “Influence of subglacial hydrology on ice dynamics and biogeochemistry."

Happy Friday! We would like to remind reviewers of this and other @theAGU journals that you may co-review manuscripts with 1-2 students or other early-career scientists, to help them gain reviewing experience

Being a critical thinker is about more than challenging other people's assumptions. It also requires you to rethink your own views.

@warikoo To the majority up to certain age, happiness is proportional to money. If there is a way to practically make students feel that happiness is not always proportional to money, then it should be included. I doubt this practical course is possible. It is psychology.

How do you engage with posters? Can we make them more engaging and accessible? This year my poster is interactive and has a voice recording of the poster walk through. Come and have a go and tell me what you think using the poster QR code #ICTMC2022 #cometinitiative

@HarryZeko @EuroGeosciences Congratulations Harry!

[1/2] 📢 We are hiring! 📢 For our @snsf_ch project "21st century evolution of small glaciers and their impact on regional hydrology in the Himalayas," we are looking for a doctoral student with strong interest in glacio-hydrological modelling to join our group.

The decline in global biodiversity is another key issue that we need to tackle, along with climate change.
@findingnature has beautifully redesigned the climate stripes to represent the global decline in species & populations.

The adage “A picture is worth a thousand words” is often used. When it comes to #glacier changes, it could not be more true. Judge it yourself! This repeat-photo is from #Gornergletscher near #Zermatt. More words needed?

[Subeesh M P @subeesh_mp]

Reduced sea-ice and increased storms in the Arctic can change the upper ocean dynamics and lead to mixing of the subsurface warm waters towards up. We show that this process may important in Arctic fjords. @srvsxc @polarankit

Glaciers are important water towers and are major contributors to sea-level rise. How to model their evolution over time while accounting for ice flow?

Most scientists from the Global South are not able to afford Open Access (OA). An OA article can equal 3 or 4 of our monthly salaries or the full yearly amount of one of our grants. This discriminatory situation creates a double-standard in science dissemination.

[Fabien Maussion @FabClimate]

🚨Last week, a great paper on mountain glaciers came out! "Ice velocity and thickness of the world’s glaciers" by R. Millan et al: https://t.co/f6OFsHzYEf
My take on (1) why its important, (2) why some media headlines were misleading without context, and (3) what comes next!

[Jordi Bolibar @jordi_bolibar]

This is definitely one of the most important papers for global glacier modelling. Forget about the unfortunate polemic on the quantification of sea level rise, and let's focus on the implications of such a complete dataset. Congrats @romain_millan and co!

@saurabhvergia @DaveRounce @GlacierResearch @AGU_Cryo @igsoc My paper in one reputed journal was rejected after more than one year of review. One reviewer accepted, one rejected. The dashboard shows major rev. -minor rev.- rejection. Pathetic part is the time it took for rejection! It is indeed devastating for ECRs.
