More information on what we know here: blogs.agu.org/landslideblog/… This is now unlikely to be a GLOF, more probably a glacier collapse or a rock and/or ice avalanche.

Great animation of the trajectory of iceberg #A68a over the last three weeks and it’s handbrake turn to avoid hitting South Georgia.
Updated trajectory of iceberg 🧊 #A68a showing how the iceberg and its siblings A68d-f drift with the current 🌊 around South Georgia Islands 🇬🇸

Glaciers as seen from Furka Pass. Hereby a truly unique visual angle to understand how those little icy patches are actually connected. Turn your sound on for the biggest surpr.ice! youtube.com/watch?v=1bs9qbuw…

Mass balance of a #glacier is the gain and loss of ice from the glacier system, an important climate change indicator. WGMS calculated glacier mass loss of over 20 meters of w.e. from 1976-2005, with mean annual melting rates doubling after 2000. #ClimateChange #rstats #dataviz

A letter from the World Glacier Monitoring Service (WGMS) to @UNFCCC summarising glacier changes and can be read on their website: wgms.ch and a short letter to @nature here: nature.com/articles/d41586-0…

Very nice overview over some of the key glacier data! Check out our website recognice.org/sansalvatore/ for plots of the glaciers seen from San Salvatore in Lugano Switzerland (a subset of the WGMS data). #glaciers #recognice #sansalvatore #wgms

Articles get published even during these troubled times. Here's a new study lead by the WGMS on estimating global glacier mass change for the most recent years. Another acceleration of losses to more than 400 billion tons of ice annually... the-cryosphere.net/14/1043/2…

It is with great sadness that we learned about the death of Konrad Steffen, one of world's most influential polar scientists and founding father of Swiss Camp, the Swiss research station on Greenland's ice cap. Our thoughts go to his family and friends.

On July 14th we unveiled the world's first Recogn.ice Freezy Frame on the top of San Salvatore in #Lugano featuring 16 #glaciers! Kudos Jochem Braakhekke, @corolarry, Timothée Beckert and grazie Ugo Bernasconi #recognice #sansalvatore #cryosphere @Monte San Salvatore

Recogn.ice is a Swiss non-profit association founded in February 2019 that wants to raise awareness on the presence and the crucial role of the so-called cryosphere. Check out our website at recognice.org! #recognice #glaciers #cryosphere #ClimateChange
