  1. Blue Jewels and Gray Haze

    Beginning in early spring, brilliant blue ponds form on Greenland’s ice sheets as meltwater gathers in indentations. This satellite image shows the ice east of Nordenskiöld Glacier, which is the tongue of ice projecting on the left side of the image. The center region of ice is darker, marked by soot, ash, and dirt left behind after previous ice layers have melted. These darker remains make the ice less reflective to sunlight; with less reflectivity, the ice absorbs more sunlight, melting faster. (Image credit: M. Garrison/NASA Earth Observatory)

  2. Aerial view of the team taking coordinates on the ground as clouds roll in. A #lake now fills the indent where the glacier used to be. The team uses #Trimble #geospatial technology to log the location coordinates of the targets; the tool gives high precision positions within a few centimetres. Since the #glacier is beyond the standard trekking routes, they are joined by a local military guard, which lends a hand with the survey process.

  8. Stewart Aerodrome CZST → Dease Lake CYDL

    We are now far enough north and the mountains are also high enough – so it was possible to see plenty of glaciers on the way to Dease Lake.

    The weather in Dease Lake was good, so the approach and landing could be flown visually with ease.
