NASA satellites are tracking the evolution of the earth surface by using laser altimetry as seen in our new paper in @NatRevEarthEnv rdcu.be/dxiB7 w/ @LoriMagruder @helenafricker @lauraduncanson @KacimiSahra @longhornglam @dr_slfarrell

🚨New Review! Monitoring Earth’s climate variables with satellite laser altimetry 🛰️ By @LoriMagruder et al. @dr_slfarrell @helenafricker @bcsatho @lauraduncanson @KacimiSahra @longhornglam nature.com/articles/s43017-0… Free: rdcu.be/dxiB7
Changes in sea ice and land ice in the polar regions from ICESat and ICESat-2. Main maps show sea ice thickness for the Arctic and Greenland region (sea ice thickness for January 202064) and the Antarctic region (average for April to November 2019)82 from ICESat-2. The height change rate for the land ice sheet is also shown, based on data from ICESat to ICESat-2 (ref. 49). Inset panels show details of processes made possible with high-resolution ICESat-2 data.

Fantastic talk by Leilani Raashida Henry and Ted Scambos at WCRP 2023 about the International Thwaites Glacier Collaboration (ITGC). Leilani's father, George W. Gibbs, was the first African-American to set foot on Antarctica, and she is ITGC's EDI specialist!

A kutatást a Qubitnek @bcsatho gleccserkutató kommentálta, aki szerint a grönlandi-jégtakaró központi és északi részén a hőmérséklet alakulását 1000-2012 közt rekonstruáló kutatás jelentős előrelépést jelent. qubit.hu/2023/01/18/az-elmul…

Az elmúlt ezer évben egyszer sem olvadt úgy a grönlandi jégtakaró, mint ahogy ma olvad

Jégmintákkal rekonstruálták, hogyan változott Grönland belső területeinek hőmérséklete 1000 és 2011 között. A kutatásból az is kiderült, hogy a 2000-es évek 1,5 fokkal voltak melegebbek a 20. századi...

Vestiges of a Volcanic Arc Hidden Within Chicxulub Crater - Eos

Scientists discovered magmatic remnants of a volcanic arc by dating granitic rocks of the middle crust excavated by, and hidden within, the Chicxulub impact crater.

An Ancient Meltwater Pulse Raised Sea Levels by 18 Meters - Eos

Meltwater pulse 1A, a period of rapid sea level rise after the last deglaciation, was powered by melting ice from North America and Scandinavia, according to new research.

Ten Ways to Apply Machine Learning in Earth and Space Sciences - Eos

Machine learning is gaining popularity across scientific and technical fields, but it’s often not clear to researchers, especially young scientists, how they can apply these methods in their work.

@UBGeology field camp students learn about drilling as @UB_Hydro puts in a 50' well for teaching borehole geophysics and hydrogeology. Great project and a great day to drill a well!

ICESat-2 is the latest laser altimeter to take the measure of Greenland's glaciers, and Beata Csatho is adding this new set of measurements to the record to look at how places like Jakobshavn Glacier have changed since the late 1990s

On Oct. 1, we’re celebrating #NASA60th. Did you know that 60 years ago, we weren’t sure how our home planet was evolving? Thanks to @NASAEarth missions like #ICESat2, we have new tech that helps us understand our changing planet: go.nasa.gov/2DGy1m8

Our door is open! 🛰️🚪👍 The ATLAS instrument on #ICESat2 was designed with a door to protect the instrument as it settles into orbit – this morning the operations team successfully issued the commands to open the door and start letting the light in!
