Sharing a study led by Dr. Francesca Baldacchino, which I contributed to! We resolved the seasonal variation in glacier speed and found that speed-ups and slowdowns in ice flow are associated with water trapped beneath the glaciers.

😬Almost 40% of glaciers in Central Europe were lost between 2000 and 2023.
A new study, using data from various satellite🛰️observations -including @esa_cryosat mission- reveals alarming insights about the declining rate of glaciers.

ICYMI: New work led by CIRES' @AliBanwell shows that ice shelves don’t just buckle under the weight of meltwater lakes—they fracture. @IanWillis16 @rebeccadell1

The open-air style banquet in the annual meeting of geological and geophysical society of #Taiwan in #Hualien. The tent, in fact, is built on the surface rupture of 2018 earthquake! Good weather, nice people and nice food.
Published today in @igsoc, our new study that includes the first in-situ observations of Antarctic ice-shelf fracture due to surface meltwater lakes: https://t.co/eaXujeuK6L
The are so many aftershocks (many a day!) which makes me really feel like installing a seismometer at home to see whether the shake's just my illusions or not.
Ice cover on the Great Lakes is at historic lows – at a time when ice coverage is typically reaching its annual peak – due to warm winter weather and above-average surface water temperatures. https://t.co/U808bcTmOX 🧊
