***Opportunity to work for NASA at @NASAJPL of @Caltech*** We are looking for a candidate to study the general interactions (broadly defined) between climate and solid Earth. Drop me a line if you are interested. Please spread the word! https://t.co/I6A5xVr6V4

Thwaites Glacier Eastern Ice Shelf from Sentinel-1 over the last eight years. I suspect it won't be long before total collapse. 1080p video can be downloaded here: https://t.co/bc1fh7OKdA

⏳ This call for postdoctoral fellows to join our group closes at the end of August (31/8). All positions include the possibility for #Greenland fieldwork. Very fine to email me queries about the positions, or living and working in Denmark, at wic@geus.dk. 👇
We are hiring two to three postdoctoral fellows to join us at GEUS ( https://t.co/txBXW5cP96) for periods of 24 and 30 months to work on Greenland glaciology themes. Details - https://t.co/tKTa326tfl - closes 31 August 2023.

For Greenland Ice Sheet radiostratigraphy v2, I've been refining ARESELP method of predicting layers before tracing them. Working well and fast. 1. 12 concatenated CReSIS radargrams; 2. Raw ARESELP layers; 3. Quick ARESELP clean-up; 4. Flattened radargram: much easier to trace!

Check out our new pre-print led by postdoc Vincent Verjans on using deep neural networks to speed up subglacial hydrology modeling by 800x and hopefully pave the way for fully coupled simulations of entire ice sheets with subglacial hydrology

Subglacial drainage networks regulate the response of ice sheet flow to surface meltwater input to the subglacial environment. Simulating subglacial hydrology evolution is critical to projecting ice...

What impact has leaving the EU had on UK polar science ? I think you could not conceive a simpler and more effective way to damage it. We have to recognise this before we can fix it. Starting by rejoining @CopernicusEU to save our space sector

We can watch how the Greenland ice sheet is lifted by the pooling of subglacial water using InSAR. Pooled water propagates like a water-snake along NEGIS in episodic splurges. Check out our new paper in GRL: J K Andersen et al. 2023 : https://t.co/bHQF3RXXWs

You don’t normally see stories like this in institutional publications “One of the reasons we lose women in glaciology is that the media still presents us as ‘badass scientists’ — I hate that. It’s this unhelpful, risk-taking, individualistic mentality.” https://t.co/UHdIF844Gc
