  1. @koen_hufkens I've been looking at that model myself recently, for photogrammetry purposes. My dream & plan is to record 3D snapshots of glacier tongues/gates over the coming years (for comparison, as part of my #TimeFade project), similar to what this research team was doing already back in 2017 and which should be much easier to achieve by now (e.g. via webodm.org)

  3. Troubling Scenes From An Arctic In Full Tilt Crisis 

    Courtesy of James Bradley The Arctic island of Svalbard is so reliably frigid that humanity bet its future on the place. Since 2008, the Svalbard Global Seed Vault—set deep in frozen soil known as permafrost has accepted nearly 1.4 million samples of more than 6,000 species of critical crops. But, the island is warming six to seven times faster than the rest of the planet, making even winters freakishly hot, at least by Arctic standards. Indeed, in 2017, an access tunnel to the […]

  7. A German-Turkish team has surveyed the Ararat glacier for the first time at an altitude of over 5,000 metres. Beneath the melting ice could lie a unique climate and cultural archive dating back thousands of years. #archaeology #glacier #geology

  9. Throwback to a month ago for #WaterfallWednesday... Three hours earlier we were ~800 meters higher up, just below the summit of that peak in the background and the near the beginning of this ravine...

    With the next heatwave moving in this week, the great melting of these glaciers will accelerate again... 😢

  13. 💁🏻‍♀️ ICYMI: 🤖🧊 Polar researchers use an #underwater #robot named Icefin to map melting beneath #Antarctica's #Thwaites #Glacier.

    By measuring #ocean dynamics where #ice and #water meet, scientists gather #data needed to protect coastal communities and plan for future sea level shifts.
