One more year: Ice loss at Konkordiaplatz on Aletsch #Glacier is just... wow 😲 Minus 4.6 metres of ice.
Will there ever be a call:
"Make Aletsch Great Again"?
It would be about time

It's the time of the year GLAMOS measurements on around 20 Swiss #glaciers start. We've been on Rhone, Allalin, Corvatsch, ... these days.
Not all as shiny white as here! Major losses also in 2025. Stay posted for the press release via @scnat.ch on 1 Oct

That was a long break GLAMOS winter measurements due to a period of unstable weather. Today we were finally out again on Rhone #Glacier with a big @vaw-glaciology.bsky.social team. Perfect conditions, efficient working to be back before the showers.
Very little snow also here...

Alison Banwell, a glaciologist at the University of Colorado Boulder, led research into how ring fractures (aka “ice doughnuts”) contribute to the rapid collapsing of ice shelves in Antarctica. @alibanwell.bsky.social #WomensHistoryMonth
Antarctic Ice Doughnuts May Hold the Key to Shelf Collapse - Eos
The first direct record of ring fractures in Antarctic ice shows how the phenomenon could cause rapid ice shelf collapse.

Happy World Glacier Day!!

As we enter into the International Year of #Glacier Preservation, we must:

- redouble efforts to scale up political ambition for widespread emissions reductions

- fight to prevent every tenth of a degree of warming

- Ensure countries submit 1.5C aligned NDCs at COP30
