🤔Ever wondered what the bed beneath the remote #ThwaitesGlacier looks like? Well wonder no more....

💡Scientists used some clever seismic survey techniques to reveal a landscape of rocky hills and smooth plains.

What’s under the unstable Thwaites Glacier in Antarctica? International Thwaites Glacier Collaboration and AWI Media went on an epic journey to find out.

Over a huge continuous area they did:
📏 350km of survey
🎙️ pulling 480 geophones
🚡 on 1.5km of cable

Here's the full story 📰

The vast floating ice platforms of northern Greenland that keep our seas lower by holding back many trillion tons of ice are in stark decline, according to new scientific research published Tuesday. There are just 5 left. wapo.st/49DM6vJ

New The Washington Post article about Greenland's remaining ice shelves.

Photos from my first expedition to the 79N Glacier in 2018 show the cracks that caused the formation of an iceberg in 2023.

Let’s start the day with some good news: Our paper on the #79NG fjord in #Greenland has been accepted by AGU (American Geophysical Union) journal #JAMES ! 🥳
Can't wait until it's published? Take a look at our preprint doi.org/10.22541/essoa… (an older version, though) or ask me for the final version.

Successful recovery of Ole Zeising's ApRES at the northern shear margin of NEGIS, always nice to work on the surface for a change
It will be deployed close to EastGRIP Camp to monitor possible changes in melt rate when we hit bedrock🤓
