Finally, reasonable and balanced coverage of the glacier geoengineering efforts that isn't simply goo-goo, in the thrall of the efforts of superheroes trying to sweep in to save the day through tech (which seems unlikely to work and will take decades) www.science.org/content/arti...
Call to study glacial geoengineering stirs up ācivil warā among polar scientists
I pulled together a bunch of my #glacier#seismologywww.icloud.com/sharedalbum/...
What?! Two of Weertman's canonical works were published back to back in the same issue of J. Glac: (1) the tombstone model for basal motion (i.e., Weertman sliding) and (2) the analytical solution for an unconfined, spreading ice shelf. What a year 1957 was! Thanks for your hard work, Weertman!

I had a great last week w a really kind, dedicated group of people committed to helping others prepare for increased coastal flooding. These scientists and practitioners set aside their own needs to help build the best possible ice sheet model experiment. The scope of this effort is exciting.
I'm headed to VA to share a few thoughts with the ice sheet community community on what insurers want or need to know about sea level rise. I can only hope this slide would get the @kellyhereid.bsky.social seal of approvalā¦
Holy smokes- this substack is a bleak picture indeed of the present economic and community impacts of climate change. Reminds me of the beautiful and impacting novel, The Light Pirate
Highest known geophysical correlation coefficients?! Check this out: Weighing the Greenland Ice Sheet, month by month, using only GNSS stations around the margin. Essentially as good as a complicated satellite system, at least in this application. agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1029/...
Itās a shame when you can date a photo by the look of the glaciers in it. Amiright, @iamdonovan.bsky.social?
