Continent-wide mapping shows increasing sensitivity of East Antarctica to meltwater ponding - Nature Climate Change
This study provides a continent-wide assessment of surface meltwater area in Antarctica between 2006 and 2021, highlighting recent increases in magnitude and variability in East Antarctica, with indic...

I’m delighted to share that our new paper is now out in @natclimate.nature.com! Our long-term, monthly Antarctic-wide dataset of surface meltwater shows that the East Antarctic Ice Sheet is becoming increasingly prone to surface meltwater ponding.
Excited to head into the field tomorrow for the final season of our MAGICaL project investigating Greenlandic ice-marginal lake temperatures. Expecting lots of ice melt based on the terrifying amount of water flowing through Kangerlussuaq at the minute...

I chatted to the amazing @drgilbz.bsky.social about our new paper (which Ella is also a co-author on!), which suggests that East Antarctica is becoming more prone to surface meltwater ponding. Check out the video below!
We didn’t know East Antarctica was melting like this

Ice-marginal lakes across #Greenland- why do they matter?! 🇬🇱🧊 🌊
Our article in Geography introduces the importance of these chilly lakes and their impact on ice sheet change.
Read on for an IML crash-course plus some cool classroom tips ❄️💻✏️

Thought I'd join the migration over this way... To add a bit of colour to my currently blank profile, here's a couple of pictures from two highly enjoyable and productive field seasons to west Greenland this year, studying ice-marginal lake temperatures and ice dynamic effects.
