Final temperature and precipitation data are in. The mass balance season of 2023/24 ended for #Bordu #glacier in #Kyrgyzstan with a record negative value of -1.66 m w.e. The glacier is representative for the Central #TienShan mountains.

Last week, part of the BGlacier team conducted fieldwork in #Switzerland, measuring the mass balance and surface height of the #Morteratsch and #Pers glaciers. After a warm summer, mass loss is again significant, but less severe than the past years due to heavy spring snowfall,

Wat een heerlijke dag: stralende afgestudeerden, trotse ouders en professoren, het prachtige stadhuis van Brussel en zelfs de zon was van de partij. Gefeliciteerd aan alle afgestudeerde VUB ingenieurs! #TheWorldNeedsYou, meer dan ooit.

🚨 Paper alert. New research by Etienne Legrain: How do the fastest, most intense natural CO2 variations over a century compare to human emissions? Analyses of Antarctic ice cores show they are at least 10 times slower and 10 times less amplified. 👇👇nature.com/articles/s4156…

Thrilled to announce 🎉 that Chris Smith (Chris Smith 🇪🇺) has joined our Department of Water and Climate at VUB as a Senior Scientist! With a strong background in climate science, we're excited to have him on board. Welcome, Chris!

Exciting news! 🎉This month Amaury Laridon joins our Department of Water and Climate as a doctoral researcher. Welcome aboard, Amaury!

It gets warmer and #glaciers melt. We knew that, right? But it seems that it may be more than we thought so far (e.g. latest #IPCC report). Find out more in our latest study: tc.copernicus.org/articles/18/50…

Previous work by SPARCCLE researchers highlighted the increased exposure of younger generations to hazards like heatwaves, drought, wildfires and more - work that will be extended in the SPARCCLE project. This #WorldChildrensDay, let’s act for a climate-resilient future for all.

🌍❄️ Glaciers in the Patagonian #Andes are shrinking: 34% reached peak melt by 2020, and 68% may lose >50% of their volume by 2100. New study led by @rodaguayo1 using 1920 scenarios finds reference climate is the key uncertainty in runoff projections 🏔️🔬 tc.copernicus.org/articles/18/53…

❄️🌍 News from #Antarctica! Our team is currently in the stunning Belgica Mountains and found already 11 meteorites & 15 ice samples for the #Froid project (Belspo ). They also discovered the remains of a 1958 Belgian expedition plane! Check out their breathtaking photos! 🌌🧊

After 30 days in a field container, team #FROID is heading back to the Belgian Princess Elisabeth Station (#IPF)! They've gathered valuable data to pinpoint a site for recovering ancient ice. Thanks for your support! ❄️🔬 Read more 👉 froidultimo.wordpress.com/2025/01/02/fro…

Happy first-ever World Glacier Day! 🧊🌍 At bglacier, we study how #glaciers shape water resources and contribute to sea level rise in a changing climate.
