CryoSCOPE's first Annual Meeting — Reykjavík, Iceland, 4–5 March 2026 Researchers and advisory committee members gathered in Reykjavík for CryoSCOPE's first Annual Meeting, a milestone for the project as it moves into its next phase of research and collaboration.

Researchers from the CryoSCOPE project participated in the 29th Alpine Glaciological Meeting held on 26–27 February 2026 in Milan, bringing together scientists studying the rapid transformation of the Alpine cryosphere.

From 22 Feb to 1 March 2026, Winters under Pressure: Life in a Changing Cold Environment brought students to the University of Oulu’s Oulanka Research Station to study snow, soils, microbes, GHG fluxes and winter hydrology.

The Himalayan cryosphere is critical for Asia’s water security, yet data is scarce. Through CryoSCOPE, researchers are building an integrated monitoring supersite in Ladakh to close this gap.

The Himalayas, the “ThirdPole”, hold some of the largest reserves of ice. These glaciers feed rivers that sustain nearly 1.9 billion people across Asia. At CryoSCOPE, researchers are studying how snow, ice, and groundwater interact in these fragile mountain systems.

From the #Himalayas to the #Arctic, #CryoSCOPE’s field sites anchor our research on Cryosphere–Atmosphere–Hydrosphere systems. They capture real-world data on #snow, #ice, #water, and #air, linking local change to global #climate insights. Check out our field sites cryoscope-project.eu/field-sites/

Happy New Year from CryoSCOPE ✨ An EU–India project advancing cryosphere science during the Decade of Action. From the Himalayas to the Arctic & Alps, we’re strengthening understanding of cryosphere–atmosphere–hydrosphere systems. Stay tuned for more data, insights, and science ahead. ❄️🌍

As 2025 ends, we mark the first year of the UN’s Decade of Action for cryospheric sciences. With ice, snow, and permafrost changing fast, CryoSCOPE combines field data, satellites, and AI across the Arctic, Alps, and Himalayas to better understand climate–cryosphere links.

Research shows “peak extinction” for Alpine glaciers is near. #CryoSCOPE explores how glacier melt reshapes mountain water, ecosystems & climate, providing insights before critical thresholds are crossed. 🏔️🌨️ www.theguardian.com/environment/... #ClimateChange #ClimateAction

Glaciers to reach peak rate of extinction in the Alps in eight years

Climate crisis forecast to wipe out thousands of glaciers a year globally, threatening water supplies and cultural heritage

Every snow sample, water reading, & satellite observation helps scientists 🔹 Detect signs of change in ice, snow, and water systems 🔹 Validate and refine climate and hydrological models 🔹 Turn local field measurements into global insights 🔹 Build the evidence needed for sound adaptation policies

CryoSCOPE researchers contributed two scientific posters at this year’s #SwissGeoscienceMeeting in Bern, highlighting emerging work on alpine hydrology and cryospheric processes.

CryoSCOPE, LIQUIDICE & ICELINK are organising an EGU 2026 session “Linking observations and models of inland ice, snow, and permafrost dynamics.” We welcome abstracts on observation–model integration, glacier/permafrost change, AI/ML & more. ❄️🌍 Deadline: 15 Jan 2026. 🔗 egu26.eu/session/58025
