5/5🧵Key findings:
1) In Enderby Land, significant increases in snow accumulation❄️ – approx 32 % of regional annual average – occur during all extreme El Niño events considered
2) 2015/16 El Niño-SMB changes across Antarctica extend beyond 5th & 95th probability distributions for SON average

4/5 🧵We examine the range of seasonal SMB responses across different Antarctic catchments during different intensities of ENSO events using high-resolution output from a reanalysis-forced Antarctic regional climate model

PhD submitted 🥳🎉3.5 yrs..It’s been a rollercoaster, but what an amazing ride! Thanks to so many amazing people for helping me to get here…particularly@andrewmackintosh.bsky.social @fsmccormack.bsky.social @benhenley.bsky.social @helenmcgregor 🙌photo quite aptly shows the disbelief, relief & joy!
