Oceanographer working on the impact of the melting Greenland Ice Sheet
Greenland
Joined December 2016
Melting of the Greenland Ice sheet has global implications leading to sea level rise but also regionally impacts the coastal zone. Our research shows that not only productivity of downstream fjord is impacted but also its ecosystem and its services https://t.co/M0cI5CHahy

Great to get a float out in the fjord, looking forward to the data and collaborating further on understanding our #greenland #fjord @omgnasa @GCRC_GINR @NIOZnieuws
Since OMG ended Mike Wood and I have been working with @Lorenz_Meire from the Greenland Institute of Natural Resources. Today we are deploying this APEX float to monitor ocean conditions in the fjord north of Nuuk #omgnasa #climate #GINR

Very proud of the great defense and thesis of Dr. Alice Stuart-Lee. With her great contribution, we try to further understand how melting glaciers impact Greenland coastal seas #proudsupervisor #greenland #fjords @NIOZnieuws @GCRC_GINR

An ice-cold northern wind, but so beautiful to go out sampling during winter in #Greenland @GCRC_GINR @NIOZnieuws

On a monitoring trip with @Lorenz_Meire, it was amazing to finally see where the data I have been staring at for 5 months were collected @GCRC_GINR @NIOZnieuws

Long time series are essential to understand our #oceans yet unfortunately are rare. In our latest publication we describe a 70 yr time series in SW #Greenland showing changes in ocean temperature related with arrival of water masses from the North https://t.co/Ca7J5y2cjN

Sailing from the shelf to #glaciers in #Uummannaq fjord system studying hotspots of local productivity and how it's driven by physical #oceanography
Our team of marine biologists, physical oceanographers and engineers is ready onboard #RVSanna. We just left Ilulissat in #Greenland and sail to our first sampling location near Uummannaq fjord! In team with @eurofleets @VLIZnews @NIOZnieuws and @HereonHelmholtz

Successful campaign in #fjords around #Nuuk collecting water and sediment samples, full of life to understand productivity of #greenland #fjords and the fate of this production @GCRC_GINR @NIOZnieuws @MarBiolNews @FWOVlaanderen

Werk van #VLIZ onderzoekster Nelle Meyers, samen met @ILVOvlaanderen en @MarineAtUGent Belgen forceren doorbraak in opsporing microplastics in zee: "Veel efficiënter in kaart te brengen"
vrt.be
Belgische onderzoekers hebben een doorbraak bewerkstelligd in het opsporen van microplastics in zeewater. Dankzij een nieuwe methode op basis van fluorescentie zijn ze erin geslaagd om veel sneller...

We observe that the fjord is quite dynamic yet obviously strongly impacted by glacial meltwater. A large fraction of the freshwater remains in the fjord as for the neighboring #Godthåbsfjord as well.
