Well done Durham Students for Palestine for holding the university to account and making concrete progress (however incomplete)

The world is getting hotter, and some regions are heating up much faster than others These #ShowYourStripes for #Svalbard in the #Arctic, which is warming 6x faster than the global average! The Arctic as a whole is warming 3-4x faster Ed Hawkins showyourstripes.info/c/europe/norwa…

Today we have published our latest work in Nature Geoscience Slush accounts for more than half on Antarctica’s surface meltwater area at the peak of the melt season! The paper is freely available here: doi.org/10.1038/s41561… Ian Willis Dr. Alison Banwell Sophie de Roda Husman 1/5

In the first of a series of research interviews with our colleagues Professor Chris Stokes speaks about his work on ice sheets and the responses of glaciers to climate change. Here he answers our questions about the progress of his research & its impact: tinyurl.com/bdw6mwev

Both poles are now observing unusually low sea ice conditions, and therefore global sea ice extent is yet again near record low levels for the current date... More sea ice graphics available at zacklabe.com/global-sea-ice…

This is absolutely disgraceful.

It's the last day of school for many across the North East! If you're looking for something exciting and educational for your little ones over the summer holidays, Life Science Centre is showing planetarium show about superhero satellites featuring CPOM PI Dr Sammie Buzzard ❄️ 👇

Sea ice is reflecting less solar energy back to space due to #climatechange From 2016–2023, the planetary cooling effect of #Arctic and #Antarctic sea ice was 20% and 12% less than in 1980s This is causing 🌍 to absorb +0.3 W m−2 extra of solar power for each deg of warming

Albatrosses and petrels are synonymous with Antarctica. But these iconic seabirds are under threat. A new study by BAS and RSPB has revealed that a staggering 44,000 birds are killed by fishing gear from monitored fisheries each year. 1/2 📸Alastair Wilson

After about 14 years of hearing about them, great to attend my first IGS British Branch! A lot of faces I’d not seen in a very long time. And good to know I’m still known as the guy who broke his arm in Greenland.

Go and check out my old team’s work if you’re at European Polar Science Work.
