Greenland and Antarctica are losing ice in quantities of gigatons. But how much is a gigaton of ice? Some very nice downloadable animations that visualize it. climate.nasa.gov/news/2933/visu…

Maybe the first direct evidence of continuous wintertime residual meltwater drainage, thus confirming existence of a wet bed and live subglacial hydrological system year-round for at least some parts of the ice sheet. Nice work, Lincoln Pitcher agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10…

#CRYO2ICE is kicking off in one week!🎉 Once #CryoSat and #ICESat2 will be in sync, their combined data will, among others, allow scientists to measure snow depth from space, improving the accuracy of sea ice thickness measurements and ice-sheet elevation time series🛰️🧊🛰️

Very nice article on Koni Steffen. Ironically, just last week we were talking about details for next year's field season. cbsnews.com/news/konrad-st…

Congrats to a great #WAIS2020. Loved the creative, COVID-adjusted, format and especially the sessions on Diversity and Early Career issues. Very nicely done Mines Glaciology @icy_simkins @Indrani59031964 @icy_pete Brooke Medley, Knut Christianson Great NSF-NASA collaboration!

CryoTEMPO-EOLIS products exploit #CryoSat’s SARIn mode and the novel Swath processing technique to deliver increased spatial and temporal coverage of time-dependent elevation over land ice. Last week, the products went live for #Antarctica. Read more👉 earth.esa.int/eogateway/news…

#CRYO2ICE has a brand new site that allows users to visualise the spatial intersections of European Space Agency's #CryoSat and ARCHIVED - NASA Ice's #ICESat2 for a given time window. Since this is a beta version, feedback is appreciated! Explore and let us know what you think👉cryo2ice.org

Operation #IceBridge is officially over. It passed its NASA Key Decision Point F review today. Excellent presentation by Joe MacGregor , Brooke Medley , Linette Boisvert And what an accomplishment by so many people ARCHIVED - NASA Ice So proud of the team. youtu.be/c4_CNJx7FRM
