Heatwaves, record low sea ice, ice shelf collapse and species crashes are threatening the globally important #Antarctic environment Only rapid emissions reductions can prevent Antarctic extreme events from becoming more frequent and intense in future frontiersin.org/articles/10.33…

Calling all #ECRs! We are offering an opportunity to bring your science to policymakers COP28 UAE by volunteering at the 2023 #cryosphere pavilion! Applications close Monday, September 04 iccinet.org/cop28-cryosphe… Please RT and share widely!

Incredible time being part of COP27 at the #Cryosphere Pavilion! Definitely a must for fellow early career researchers! 👏 #COP28

1.5 ℃ warmer than the 1850-1900 average. It's already happened. 😔

💔💔💔

I used to worry that polar bears might go extinct in my lifetime, but now I'm starting to worry that my favorite emperor penguins might also face extinction in my lifetime. 💔💔💔

Thrilled and deeply honored to be awarded the prestigious DECRA fellowship! Grateful beyond words for the unwavering support from University of Tasmania and my incredible colleagues from Australian Antarctic Program Partnership Australian Centre for Antarctic Science (ACEAS) IMAS . #DECRA #DE24

"We urgently need better projections of future sea-level rise that will enable us to plan for and adapt to widespread and costly coastal impacts in Australia and around the world." With immense enthusiasm and excitement, I'm ready to embrace my new journey in #Antarctic Science.

Congrats to my student Yu Wang who wins the 1st poster prize at the @ACCESS_NRI workshop. This is Yu's 1st poster ever. Congrats to Zijin Chen for the best student poster. 🎊🎉Australian Antarctic Program Partnership

5⃣ PhD projects IMAS with AAPP top-up scholarships! 🌪️ atmospheric ocean iron fertilisation 🧊 ice shelf deep learning ☁️ aerosol and clouds ⚗️ elemental biogeochemistry 🌊 the abyssal 🌊 Southern Ocean ➡️ aappartnership.org.au/phd-projects/ 🚨 Applications close 25 September

Honored to join as a panelist representing the #Cryosphere at #IntegratedEarth2023, a symposium aiming to integrate Earth systems expertise and data. Australia's Cryosphere community may be small, but it's pivotal. Urgently, we must connect with other spheres to bridge gaps. 🌍❄️

Big thanks to the organizing committee! 🙌 I've been inspired by the insightful talks and discussions over the past two days. Australia's data infrastructures are robust, but integrating data from five spheres poses challenges. We must rally our efforts, especially from ECRs.💪

Today is the first day of the One Planet Polar Summit in Paris. Melting snow and ice takes center stage as countries prepare for #COP28. Ministers, scientists, and climate experts from around the world join together to bring #cryosphere into the center of negotiations.

🚨HOT OFF THE PRESS🚨 The State of the Cryosphere 2023 report confirms even 2°C warming will trigger irreversible loss to ice sheets, glaciers, snow, sea ice, permafrost, and polar oceans with disastrous consequences for society and nature 🧵 Read here: iccinet.org/statecryo23/

Interested in catching up on the COP29 Cryosphere Pavilion's activities over the past two weeks? Our full side event program is now online. Major topics: ice sheets, mountain glaciers and snow, permafrost, sea ice, polar oceans. The key: upholding 1.5°C. youtube.com/@iccinet

A new study found parts of Antartica could pass a tipping point for mass ice sheet losses as soon as 2050 – pushing sea levels 2 metres higher by 2300 than currently predicted. Chen University of Tasmania theconversation.com/antarcticas-hi…

📣 Our new paper is out in Nature Communications ! Subglacial water—often overlooked—can change sea-level rise projections by up to a factor of three. Big implications for how we model Antarctica. 🔗 nature.com/articles/s4146…

There's a hidden force beneath Antarctica that could seriously amplify ice loss: meltwater under the ice sheet. No background in glaciology or climate science needed—if you’re interested in the future of our coasts, cities, or planet, this one's for you. theconversation.com/antarcticas-hi…

Great to see our new paper in Nature Communications featured by 60 news outlets following an interview with Australian Associated Press (AAP)! We reveal hidden water under Antarctica that could accelerate ice loss and sea-level rise 🌍❄ thewest.com.au/news/environme…

There’s a hidden threat beneath Antarctica’s ice sheet & it could add over 2m to global sea levels by 2300. New research shows subglacial meltwater plays a far bigger role in ice loss than previously thought & it urgently needs considering in modelling: theconversation.com/antarcticas-hi…
