Crikey! This is fascinating... not good though.

One more example of what we are doing to our beautiful planet 🌍 and how the polar ice sheets ❄ are so crucial 😓 ft.com/content/5dd4a0…

Inspiring! Getting to unexplored places is challenging but yields big insights.🔎

For International Thwaites Glacier Collaboration we've worked on rocks and sediments from below ice in #Antarctica . The British Antarctic Survey 🐧 ❄ hot water drill team Hot Water on Ice and USIceDrillingProgram get samples! Amazing 😄 #Geology

I highly recommend this - James James Smith is not only a great British Antarctic Survey 🐧 colleague, but also a leader in sub-ice shelf sedimentology. This will be an awesome project! ☺ #geology #Antarctica International Thwaites Glacier Collaboration

Had an fascinating time today, giving oral evidence to the House of Commons Environmental Audit Sub-Committee on Polar Research 🇦🇶. Lots of interest in Natural Environment Research Council and International Thwaites Glacier Collaboration ❄️ 😊

📣A fascinating story from an ice core in West #Antarctica just out!

A remarkably similar result to very rapid thinning 8,000 years ago we discovered using rocks near Thwaites Glacier 👍

Check out this 🧵about my colleague Peter T Fretwell 's work (with great 🇦🇶 photos!)👇 #Penguins #Antarctica

Just put together this pic of my International Thwaites Glacier Collaboration team for an upcoming talk. I love it! Look at all those smiling faces😊 Greenery makes a change from snowy #Antarctica 🇦🇶 backgrounds too! #geology #ThwaitesGHC

Dingle weather 🌞 at British Antarctic Survey 🐧 Rothera Research Station - and some great photos of planes 🛩. Busy up in the tower, I bet! #Antarctica #Aircraft

Closing Sunday:

I just had to RT this as it's so gorgeous! See thread below for link to pattern. Erin McClymont I love your choice of colours 😊 #crochet #Antarctica

I have everything crossed for Dr. Peter Neff and his team. An ice core climate record from nr Pine Island Glacier covering the last 10 kyrs ❄️🌡️👇would be fantastic for understanding what caused the rapid thinning ~8kyrs ago revealed by my International Thwaites Glacier Collaboration team!
