In this animation, we can see that the glacier detached sometime between September 4 and 21, 2025 (actually Sept 17-21), and a piece traveled ~5km down valley to just below the village of Safedob. And then on Oct 25, the glacier farther upvalley again advanced, pushing the detached piece another km

Holy moly - this glacier detachment in Tajikistan is WILD. It appears that there was a large piece of glacier ice much farther down the valley from a first detachment which then got pushed by a second soon thereafter. 🧵@planet.com @davepetley.bsky.social 🧪⚒️

It's v hard to tell but it might be Didal Glacier, which is surge-type and actually was surging in the months prior to this video. I don't know if something switched allowing the runaway mode seen in the video. Curious for thoughts of other glaciologists 🧪⚒️❄️ www.planet.com/stories/dida...

The OPERA InSAR dataset is a *phenomenal* resource. Check this out. This ground subsidence in southern California is likely due to ground compaction and aquifer depletion. 🧪⚒️🛰️
