Our first mission is a pair of 25 km long lines parallel to the calving front of the Nansen Ice Shelf (about 5 km from the ice). We’re looking for any super cooled or otherwise unique plumes of water that may indicate the location of sub-ice shelf channels.

Congrats on collecting turbulence data beneath the ice and the great team of scientists and engineers who were behind this success! @UCD_TERC UC Davis College of Engineering

True Citizen Science - my mother chipping ice at -15 Celsius to deploy moorings to understand mixing dynamics in Lake Massawippi where she grew up. ⁦UC Davis College of Engineering⁩ ⁦@UCD_TERC⁩

It is with great sadness we share that world-renowned oceanographer Walter Munk has passed away at the age of 101. Walter was a daring scientist revered for his drive to solve problems facing our community, the nation and the world. scripps.ucsd.edu/news/obituary-…

Thanks for a great conversation about cohesive sediment and bivalve transport with Sun Min and JunYoung from Inha University on the way to the airport in Incheon.

A huge section of the Milne #IceShelf has collapsed into the #Arctic Ocean producing a ~79 km2 ice island. Above normal air temperatures, offshore winds and open water in front of the ice shelf are all part of the recipe for ice shelf break up. #MilneIceIsland #Nunavut #seaice
