3D-print demonstrating a rotational landslide at it simplest. Amazing how much you can actually communicate with such a simple model: Rotation, self-stabilization etc.

Working towards making more complex models and share the blueprints so they can be used in outreach.

The Semper Crevasses project is keeping us busy on the ice sheet this week! Here's the view into one of Greenland's newest crevasses, which has opened in recent months at 2000 m elevation above sea-level about 100 km inland from Ilulissat Glacier front.

FYI -- I'm giving a public talk on this topic ("Earth’s Ice Sheets and Multi-Meter Sea-Level Rise") in Copenhagen on May 27, as part of the symposium: "Climate Change and its Effects"

Details: igas.dk/arrangementer/
Here's a report we published a couple years ago that looks at the potential for multi-meter sea-level rise here in Denmark.

This particular figure places recent ice-sheet projections in the context of paleo sea-level changes.
