New snow/ice thickness measurements over sea ice using ICESat2 and CryoSat2 by JPL's Sahra Kacimi and Polar Science Center Ron Kwok washington.edu/news/tag/ron-k… ICESat-2 ARCHIVED - NASA Ice

Do mountains wear hats? #ICESat2 & research scientist Tyler Sutterley tackle this age-old question in today's #PhotonPhriday. Special bonus alert – we hit the eponymous trifecta of measurements: ice, clouds AND land elevation! 🧊 ☁️ 🗻

March 2022 update for PIOMAS posted. Sea ice volume 6th lowest since 1979. Thickness anomalies split across the Arctic.

A new population of polar bears documented on the southeast coast of Greenland use glacier ice to survive despite limited access to sea ice. This genetically distinct group of polar bears could be important to the future of the species in a warming world. washington.edu/news/2022/06/1…

For those who prefer audio, just discovered this really nice clip with Dr. Kristin Laidre explaining why we were so fascinated by our recent Science Magazine results. scientificamerican.com/podcast/episod… via Scientific American
