The Cryosphere Research Group at DTU Space 🌍❄️ | Geodesy & Earth Observation Department |
Rasmus and @tabea-rettelbach.bsky.social are in Budapest this week at HungaroMet for the PISCO & @polarres.bsky.social hackathon! 🇭🇺
With 20 other students and instructors, they’re exploring projects that combine climate model outputs with in-situ and EO data to better understand our Polar regions.🌍❄️

DTU Space was at the Danish Climate Science Symposium 2025 🇩🇰

We’re shared a handful of posters and a talk by Sebastian B. Simonsen: “From Satellites to Digital Twins – Monitoring the Greenland Ice Sheet.” Great discussions on climate, ice, and models! ❄️

We are proud to be contributors to a chapter on Arctic land ice and its changes in the #AMAP Assessment Report 2026!❄️

#AMAP (Arctic Monitoring and Assessment Programme) is the working group under the #ArcticCouncil that produces science-based assessments to inform policy and decision-making ❄️

🌍✨Great energy at DTU Space with a visit from Unge GIS Brugere!

Yesterday, we welcomed GIS users to #DTUSpace. The visit focused on spatial data from #EarthObservations and methods for tackling geospatial challenges, highlighting the importance of precise geospatial data in the Arctic and beyond 🌍❄️

Congratulations to Behzad Forouzi Feshalami for defending his PhD thesis: "Numerical modeling of wave-induced erosion of floating icebergs" - a valuable contribution to improving our understanding of ice–ocean interactions! 🌊🧊

In collaboration with #NTNU, supervised by @spacehsk.bsky.social 🎓

The goal is to test #CRISTALair, the new airborne demonstrator procured by ESA to support the upcoming #Copernicus #CRISTAL mission. #CRISTAL will deliver key observations of sea-ice thickness, snow depth, and land-ice elevation changes, supporting climate research and sea-level rise monitoring🛰

Last week, @eo4cryo.bsky.social and @spacehsk.bsky.social were in Iceland and NE Greenland on an airborne #FieldCampaign sampling key data over #SeaIce and #LandIce with a brand-new instrument #CRISTALair🛩
Cutting-edge science in action, unlocking insights for future satellites🛰 #EarthObservation

Three new papers co-authored by @tabea-rettelbach.bsky.social have just been published! A little outside of our usual focus on the cryosphere, as these studies span broader Arctic remote sensing applications: aerial imagery 🛩️, methane emissions🫧, driftwood 🪵. Details and links in the comments ⬇️

These past three days, @reneefredensborg.bsky.social, @tabea-rettelbach.bsky.social ‬& @kirkscanlan.bsky.social participated in the Symposium on Technology Advancement for Ice Remote Sensing (STAIRS) in Copenhagen, organised by the University of Copenhagen and the University of Manitoba 🛰️❄️

Welcome to our new bachelor students! 🎓

Yesterday marked the start of the new study year at DTU, where we welcomed 42 new bachelor students to our Earth and Space Physics and Engineering programme. Our head of study Sine Hvidegaard made sure the students got a good intro to their new student life.

Congratulations to DJ Upside Down Turtle and DJ Disco Disc for their triumph in the inaugural Cryosphere Group Disc Golf Championship! 🥳🥳
A lovely afternoon spent with great colleagues and only "a few" discs had to be dug out of trees or fished out of water. Time to start practicing for next year 🙃
