Looking forward to Svalbard Science Conference Ny-Ålesund Glaciology workshop this week, where I'll be presenting some new work with @hannahpicton.bsky.social on using remote sensing 🛰 to detect rapid lake drainage, meltwater plumes and links with seasonal glacier dynamics.

Multi‐Year Ice Dynamics at Køge Bugt Central Glacier Controlled by Bed Topography Greenland's fourth largest glacier in terms of ice discharge, Køge Bugt Central (KBC), exhibits substantial multi-year variations in ice flow KBC represents a self-organizing system, with an unde...

I’m happy to say the second paper from my PhD has been published! In this work we explore the drivers of the multi-year variations in ice dynamics observed at Køge Bugt Central, Greenland’s fourth largest glacier in terms of ice discharge 🧊

A Reassessment of the Role of Atmospheric and Oceanic Forcing on Ice Dynamics at Jakobshavn Isbræ (Sermeq Kujalleq), Ilulissat Icefjord The recent deceleration, thickening and advance of Greenland's largest outlet glacier, Jakobshavn Isbræ, was short-lived (2016–2018) The onset of re-acceleration preceded oceanic warming and was ...

excited to say that the first paper from my PhD has just been published! Click the link below to read more about the rapid re-acceleration of Greenland’s largest outlet glacier, Jakobshavn Isbræ (Sermeq Kujalleq) 🇬🇱🧊
