Glaciers, seasonal snow, snow-ice albedo and field work among other things. Chairman of the Icelandic Glaciology Society. Hydrological research at Landsvirkjun.
The mass balance season has started. First up was Langjökull with 28 smb points, 1 met station and 3 GPS stations. Extremly nice weather. Winter snow seems to be close to normal this spring. Up next is Vatnajökull.

Dust is a relevant but variable contributor to snow darkening & snowmelt *every year* in the headwaters of the Great Salt Lake.
The latest Snow HydRO lab research, led by PhD student Otto Lang, fills a critical gap by quantifying spatial & temporal patterns of dust on snow.

Two Decades of Dust Radiative Forcing on Snow Cover Across the Great Salt Lake Basin
Spatiotemporal patterns in dust on snow impacts were assessed over the MODIS record (2001–2023) in the Great Salt Lake Basin (GSLB) Dust deposition darkened snow every year, and the magnitude of ...

Revisiting climate impacts of an AMOC slowdown: dependence on freshwater locations in the North Atlantic
Freshwater input location strongly influences AMOC slowdown, with the Irminger basin having the greatest effect.

First post on Bluesky, lets see how it goes.
In 2023–2024, Iceland’s major glaciers—Vatnajökull, Hofsjökull, Langjökull, Mýrdalsjökull, and Tröllaskagi—were measured for mass balance. Over 100 points collected for the main glaciers.
