It's time to submit a session proposal for next year's @ESA_EO Living Planet Symposium #lps25. Check out the link below for deets👇
We are looking for ideas for peer-reviewed sessions for @esa's next Living Planet Symposium: https://t.co/GOFVOrIF2y If you don't know what LPS is➡️held every 3 years (because it's a lot of work to put together😅) ESA’s Living Planet Symposia are among the world’s premier events

Find me at the Cryosphere sessions #EGU24
Still not sure what sessions to follow at #EGU24? Here's some inspiration if you are interested in learning a bit more about our #EarthObservation missions: https://t.co/x6jruhYNlr

We were all a little on edge so this is fantastic news! Thanks @esaoperations 🙏
🤩 CryoSat lives! 🤩 ⛽️ A fuel leak threatened to bring @esa's ice mission to a premature end 🕹️ At @esaoperations yesterday, we swapped to its back-up propulsion system 🥵 The back-up thrusters had never been used before, in over 13 years in space... 🥳 ...and it was a

At @ESA_EO ESRIN this week. It was great to hear all the CryoTEMPO processing teams present their work on developing improved @esa_cryosat products. Thanks for letting me join the meeting.
🤩 Thank you so much to all these fantastic people who joined us in ESRIN this week to discuss the next improvements to CryoTEMPO - an incredible 13+ year record of Earth's ice and water - with more soon to come 🤩

Great to have @EoCdt students at our annual @esaclimate CCI Colocation meeting. I saw you all chatting to our project scientists at the poster session - well impressed by the level of engagement!
Thank you to our colleagues at @esaclimate who invited some of our students to attend their recent CCI Colocation meeting. We are really grateful for these opportunities which provide excellent career development and networking

This @esa @NASA double-pair gravity mission is going to be phenomenal! Many exciting satellite missions currently being developed. #MAGIC
Today, I am excited to open together with @KarenStG the first ever @esa - @nasa MAGIC Science and Applications Workshop in Assisi. Mass Change and Geosciences International Constellation (MAGIC) is the ESA-NASA concept for collaboration on a future gravity constellation.

The temporal evolution in surge-type glacier crevasse patterns is also visible from space. In amplitude images from synthetic aperture radar, such as @ESA_EO @CopernicusEU #Sentinel-1, this is associated with changes in backscatter intensity.

Big thank you to organisers of yesterday’s Remote Sensing session at @_Arctic_Circle & all participants. Such a big turnout! So much to say, so little time. Still got questions or just want to hear more about how we monitor melting ice with satellites? I’m your contact. Ping me.
📽️ As the #ArcticCircleAssembly takes place this week, this video shows the stark sea ice losses in the region 🥵 The Arctic is experiencing disproportionately higher temperature increases compared to the rest of the planet 🛰️ Satellites such as #CryoSat provide crucial

It’ll be an early start, I know, but anyone at @_Arctic_Circle interested in how we @esa @ESA_EO @esaclimate monitor the cryosphere with satellite data 🛰️, head over to the remote sensing session in Björtuloft at 08:30am to hear me talk about diminishing ice measured from space.

We are so glad to have you as one of our @esaclimate CCI fellows! Great kick-off meeting yesterday. Great project. Looking forward to hearing more about your work on separating thermodynamic and dynamic sea ice thickness change in the Arctic. The next two years will be ace!
🌍🚀 I've started my Climate Change Initiative Fellowship with @esaclimate @ESA_EO @AWI. Looking forward to unraveling the thermodynamic and dynamic sea ice thickness change in long-term satellite observations @esa and climate models. More details

Staveley superstar @fegbutcher. I am very sad to miss this! Maybe catch up another time if you are back in the Lakes.
Our next #geology lecture on 18th October in #Kendal with Dr Frances Butcher talking about ice and water on Mars.

Campaigns are an integral part of #EO calibration and validation. It's how we make sure what we see from space is also what we see on the ground. And kudos to @ESA_EO's @TaniaGDCasal who does a fab job at coordinating all of these!
This work is part of @ESA_EO #cryovex campaigns to improve the accuracy of radar altimetry over ice. Many thanks to @TaniaGDCasal for leading this effort !

I myself am involved in the @ESA_EO @CopernicusEU ROSE-L MAG, and it's been a fantastic ride so far! Don't hesitate to make yourself known - if you work with passive microwave data, CIMR is your chance to get involved. We need new members to give us their scientific perspective!
@ESA_EO If you are unsure what your role on the CIMR MAG would entail, get in touch with my @esaclimate CCI Sea Ice science lead @lavergnetho who can share some insights from his experience. https://t.co/SPkywifMnp

The @ESA_EO satellite mission advisory group (MAG) is a unique, interesting and professionally fulfilling experience. If you want to input scientific needs for mission design this is the moment! For sea ice: CIMR will be the solution to past accuracy & resolution challenges. 🤩
The call to be part of the CIMR Mission Advisory Group is still open! It's an exiting opportunity: the Advisory Group advises on the design/development of the mission in relation to the Copernicus User needs, and on scientific support activities. ℹ️ https://t.co/UcA9d5Y8qB

Good morning. Six hour drive down to Oxford yesterday and I just wrote an entire email in CAPS LOCK. Where's the coffee please?
