Key findings: 🔥 Summer: Most heat flows toward glaciers, concentrated in the upper 150 m thanks to subglacial discharge. 🌀 Winter: Circulation is surprisingly strong but more 3D than in summer. ➡️ Two distinct winter inflow events: one cold & deep, one relatively warm!
🏔️NEW in @natcomms.nature.com: “High frequency of moraine-dammed lake outburst floods driven by global warming” www.nature.com/articles/s41... 🤔There’s been lots of uncertainty about whether the number of glacial lake outburst floods (GLOFs) has increased, decreased or flatlined in recent decades
🚨POSTDOC JOB ALERT🚨 We have an exciting opportunity for a 2 year postdoc on remote sensing of icebergs and marine terminating glaciers. See the link below for more info! Please spread widely, and feel free to email me with any Q's :) tinyurl.com/2jjcmea9
I love that on the day of the #AGU25 #MacGyver session in Hydrology (today! come to the poster hall!) this work by @drmikepj.bsky.social was published that he presented in a previous MacGyver session gi.copernicus.org/articles/14/... Why night consumption of solar regulators matter for fieldwork!

Celebrating the end of project #SLIDE the best way we know: getting really wet feet and looking at really long time series.
Nothing more pleasing than unearthing some ancient chunks of basal ice from the archive for a student experiment. Robyn's rig looks so sciencey!
New paper! Dr VB and a crack team of citizen scientists across the #riverwye compared performance of methods to measure phosphate and nitrate: links.email.frontiersin.org/ls/click?upn... TL;DR: Hanna Checkers perform pretty well
I've got a sensor measuring a titchy stream near Monmouth to support one of our citizen science groups. It's usually 20-30 cm deep, but went up to >2m in just a few hours during Storm Claudia! Thinking of everyone affected.

As the United Nations marks the 2025 International Year of Glaciers’ Preservation and the opening of COP30 in Brazil, I'm happy to have been able to contribute a chapter to a new UK National Commission for UNESCO report on "Glaciers and Ice Sheets in a Warming World: Impacts and Outcomes". (1/2)
Team SLIDE also features in this report. TL;DR: glaciers are changing fast, but they're not gone yet, and UK scientists are helping find out about it
British Antarctic Survey 🐧@bas.ac.uk · 9mo agoWill our mountains lose their snow and ice? And does it matter if they do? These questions are answered by BAS glaciologist Dr Hamish Pritchard in a major new UNESCO report for the UN International Year of Glaciers' Preservation.

Finally out! The outcome of a virtual workshop in Feb 2024 with modelers and observationalists to put together data and protocols to include historical changes in ice sheet/ice shelf discharge in CMIP models. Hopefully not too late for some CMIP7 runs! gmd.copernicus.org/articles/18/...
Datasets and protocols for including anomalous freshwater from melting ice sheets in climate simulations
Abstract. Anomalous freshwater fluxes from the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets and ice shelves are impacting the surrounding oceans, and we need to be able to account for these effects in climate m...
