Final PhD paper is out! Recent observations reveal structural weakening of Pine Island Glacier’s southern ice shelf. These changes suggest transformations within the wider PIG system and highlight the key role of peripheral shelves in glacier stability. https://t.co/wtzh5jwQFi

We’re ready 🫡⛴️
Heading out on a foggy morning in RI for another Labrador Shelf cruise! We’ll be collecting our moorings, doing as many CTD casts as we can fit in, and being generally awesome for the next 24 days. @WHOI @URIGSO @osnap_updates

Defended my PhD last week (wot?) What a journey. So many people to thank, starting with these girls right here @HVerboncoeur @hurricane_mara_ Rachel 💛 + giant thank you to @jdmillstein (also talented baker), @TashaMSnow and @grumplesiggy for the endless support. So grateful 🥹

Here’s a nice story on my recent paper!
🧊 Stanford study warns that even stable regions in East Antarctica are facing meltdown risks. In particular, the Wilkes Subglacial Basin has the potential to raise global sea levels by more than 10 feet. https://t.co/FztaBBgxqD

Bored this Thursday afternoon? Check out @LiveScience’s write up of @ElenaSavidge’s recent publication looking at long-term polynya variability, just blasted out in the @coschoolofmines News Clips email. @bvanparidon @MinesGeophysics

New paper out in @theAGU Geophysical Research Letters! We present a multi-decadal record of sensible-heat polynya variability at Pine Island Glacier & discuss some interesting results & implications for ice-ocean-atm dynamics! @TashaMSnow @grumplesiggy

We generated a 22 years record of polynya area at Pine Island Glacier from satellite thermal and optical imagery Our data set shows high variability in sensible-heat polynya area (0–322 km2) from...

Today in lab meeting we talked about having a web presence. So here’s my yearly post: some shots from Iceland where I attended the Cryosphere 2022 meeting. So much cool science and so many cool people! 🧊🌊 I’ll be back next year for another post!! 🫠

I of course forgot to take any pictures of the conference so here are some of @HVerboncoeur and I exploring DC. So motivated by all the brilliant and encouraging scientists at #waisworkshop! Thanks to everyone who made this possible 💙

Day 3 in Colorado: Attempted field work on Arapaho Glacier led by Dr. Ted Scambos. Unfortunately we didn’t make it up due to weather conditions 🥶💨 Take two in a few weeks 🔜 *Peep @MinesGlaciology postdocs @TashaMSnow & @R_J_Michaelides carrying up the GPR*

Last hiking/camping trip before I move to CO. Will miss this island but excited for what’s to come!! #vancouverisland

Not sure if I’m allowed to say this yet, but I’m going to anyway. We’re 🎉🎉extremely proud🎉🎉 of @ElenaSavidge, who formally accepted a @NSERC_CRSNG postgraduate scholarship-doctoral (PGS-D) award today! (For the non-Canadians, this is similar to @NSF GRFP). Congrats, Elena!
