Cryosphere SeaLevel Adaptation IceSheet Glaciers This project receives funding from the HorizonEU Research & Innovation Programme.
❄️ A huge thank you to everyone who joined our high-level event on policy needs for the Polar Regions! A science–policy dialogue bringing EU institutions and stakeholders together to shape evidence-based climate action. @polarres.bsky.social @h2020protect.bsky.social @oceaniceeu.bsky.social
🗣️To frame the upcoming panel and discussions, the four organising projects present their most recent scientific and policy findings. @polarres.bsky.social, @oceaniceeu.bsky.social, @crices-h2020.bsky.social and @h2020protect.bsky.social 🇪🇺❄️
PROTECT #ArtScience exhibition continues to live on... this time in an alpine mountain hut! ⛰️ You want to get the exhibition too? It is available here 👉 zenodo.org/records/1569...
⏰ Starting now! with @polarres.bsky.social @h2020protect.bsky.social @oceaniceeu.bsky.social ❄️
Europe’s climate resilience begins at the poles❄️ What happens in the Arctic and Antarctic doesn’t stay there - it shapes Europe’s weather, oceans and security. Join leading scientists, policymakers & experts at our event tomorrow in Brussels/online. 👉 Register now: polarres.eu/polarreseven...
A few comments on our recent paper: 1- The high end is based on the SSP585 scenario which was the only one available until 2300 in CMIP6, but according to the reduced-complexity models used in IPCC-AR6, the SSP370 scenario should also cross the limit beyond which most ice shelves become non-viable.

Really excellent @h2020protect.bsky.social + @oceaniceeu.bsky.social paper by @climateclara.bsky.social + coauthors. Went to the top of the To Read list this morning. Worth a good dive into.
Up to 59% of Antarctic ice shelves may be at risk of disappearing under high-emission scenarios by 2300, according to an analysis of the effect of ocean warming in Nature. This could result in up to 10 m of global sea-level rise. go.nature.com/47Ag4k1 🌊 🧪

Beautiful and moving tribute to Saint-Sorlin #glacier in the French Alps, expected to be gone by 2050
Saviez-vous que le #glacier de Saint Sorlin aura certainement disparu d'ici 2050 ? Un concert inédit pour célébrer ce glacier avant qu'il ne disparaisse. ▶️ Film complet : youtu.be/B1klHRin-to?... - avec @igegrenoble.bsky.social #glaciers #changementclimatique #concert
PROTECT has made strong efforts to make its science accessible and actionable. Here’s a great example 👇 An article co-written by PROTECT researchers and science communicators in @france.theconversation.com

#SeaLevelRise is now unavoidable — but we can still shape how much, and how fast In this new interview, PROTECT scientists explain how improved models are helping to better capture ice sheet behaviour, better understand uncertainties, and support smarter #adaptation planning Read the full story 👇
#ClimateChange is accelerating #SeaLevel rise. 🌊 But @h2020protect.bsky.social’s new models offer better projections—so coastal communities can adapt.💪 Read the interview to find out more👉 https://shorturl.at/ctdoq @annechapuis.bsky.social
Today PROTECT is attending the final meeting of CoCliCo-coastal climate core services project led by @goneri76.bsky.social Great to see the final results!

🇧🇪 On 3 June PolarRES, @oceaniceeu.bsky.social, @crices-h2020.bsky.social & @h2020protect.bsky.social joined forces in Brussels for “Polar Research in a Global Context" Get the highlights, critical insights & what they mean for Europe's future in our new article ➡️ polarres.eu/polarresnews... #H2020
S’adapter à l’évolution de la #cryosphère et à la montée du niveau de la mer Le projet européen @h2020protect.bsky.social, coordonné par l’IGE, publie une note politique et 10 fiches claires pour guider l’ #adaptation côtière face à la fonte des glaces. 📘 Lire : www.ige-grenoble.fr/S-adapter-a-...
Two Key Events on #Ocean & #Cryosphere Don’t miss these critical discussions at the Digital Ocean Pavilion, featuring Gaël Durand, PROTECT coordinator (CNRS) on polar science and policy: 🔹 Advances in Sea Level Rise Science 📅 11/06 11:25 am online 🔗 www.digitaloceanpavilion.eu/session/6044...
☕️To close the event, participants gather at the World Café tables to explore: 🔍 Knowledge gaps 🤝 Collaboration 🌍 Long-term vision Table topics reflect our projects, sparking new ideas & connections. @oceaniceeu.bsky.social @crices-h2020.bsky.social @h2020protect.bsky.social
Today @crices-h2020.bsky.social, @polarres.bsky.social, @oceaniceeu.bsky.social and @h2020protect.bsky.social, all 🇪🇺 @ec.europa.eu-funded, present key research findings on the polar regions 🌍❄️. They’ll also identify critical knowledge gaps to guide future research agendas. Stay tuned for insights!
🇪🇺 Today, Horizon projects unite to confront polar climate change, bridging science & policy 🌍 How are changes in the Arctic & Antarctic reshaping Europe’s climate, coasts & communities? Stay tuned for insights & actions! @oceaniceeu.bsky.social @crices-h2020.bsky.social @h2020protect.bsky.social
🗣️ And we’re off! Opening remarks from Karsten Gödderz of CINEA 🇪🇺 set the stage for a day of vital dialogue on polar change, climate impact & Europe’s future. @oceaniceeu.bsky.social @crices-h2020.bsky.social @h2020protect.bsky.social

Preparing a talk + I'm struck again by this adaptation strategies by Voelz et al., 2024. I think as ice sheet scientists we are sometimes too caught up in processes. Smart engineers + social scientists FTW #SeaLevelRise @h2020protect.bsky.social agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1029/...
