I’m delighted to share that our new paper is now out in @natclimate.nature.com! Our long-term, monthly Antarctic-wide dataset of surface meltwater shows that the East Antarctic Ice Sheet is becoming increasingly prone to surface meltwater ponding.
Great work Pete!
It’s almost time for another #pintofscience 🍺

Cheers Mark!
At #EGU25 this week, where I’ll be sharing work on the velocity response of outlet glaciers to ice-marginal lakes across Greenland. If you’re interested in glaciers and lakes, come and have a chat!
📍Weds 10:45, Hall X5 (CR1.3)
Join us water@leeds talking about glaciology, remote sensing, hydrology, geomorphology, hazards, and ecology for World Day for Glacier and World Water Day. 21 March 13:00-14:30 GMT. Register here: events.teams.microsoft.com/event/3ed65f...
Thanks Dave!
Huge thanks to @joemallalieu.bsky.social (who masterminded this method) and to the rest of the cam deployment crew (Inc. @alexscoffield.bsky.social, @petetuckett.bsky.social &
@dmrippin.bsky.social) for their in-field help over the summer.
Time-lapse trail cameras… not just for wildlife! 📸
Chuffed to share this Tools of the Trade article in @natrevearthenv.bsky.social, highlighting how we can capture glacier calving to better understand rates and drivers of ice loss.

Light reading for half term!
In The emerging importance of ice-marginal lakes across Greenland, @ConnieHarpur and colleagues outline recent advances in our understanding of lake−glacier interactions across Greenland during the past, present and future and key priorities.

Wahoo! Congratulations Dr Dan! 🤩 @danielcolson.bsky.social
It’s #WomenInScience Day
🔬🧊🛰️👩🔬
I’m so fortunate to have a brilliant network of inspiring women to look up to in polar science and beyond. Gender equality is a work in progress- let’s make sure that science is for everyone.
Climate change in the polar regions of our warming world is threatening to transform many of its features, such as this icy tableau in the Fish Islands off the coast of the Antarctic Peninsula. There is still much to learn about these places before we know better what those changes may be.
A new special issue of Science highlights research on Earth’s frozen places—from the Arctic to the Antarctic—and how it’s changing due to climate change and the geopolitical challenges this important work faces.

Ice-marginal lakes across #Greenland- why do they matter?! 🇬🇱🧊 🌊
Our article in Geography introduces the importance of these chilly lakes and their impact on ice sheet change.
Read on for an IML crash-course plus some cool classroom tips ❄️💻✏️
