Just gave my talk at #BIOSPACE25 on links between shelf-sea fronts and biodiversity studied using EO. I'm enjoying exploring applications for ocean fronts with this enthusiastic community.

In a new 🧪 study out today in #GRL we show that the Greenland ice sheet lost 2347 km3 of ice since 2010 using CryoSat-2 and ICESat-2.

The satellites agree to within 3%, pretty impressive.
