You: building your #AGU25 schedule 🤝 Me: providing you a GIF-ed list of #AGU25 talks from GT Cryo group members and friends for you to add to your schedule 🧵

Geoscience needs to lean harder into the Lovecraftian. An ever-changing, self consuming world dominated by unimaginably long cycles culminating in pulses of flood basalts or punctuated by collision with massive rocks from space that nearly wipe out all life....

What humans do to change climate matters much, much more than natural climate variations in determining future ice loss from Greenland 👉 Read about the results of the Greenland Ice Sheet Large Ensemble (GrISLENS) Project in our paper out now in The Cryosphere doi.org/10.5194/tc-1...

If extreme weather had a capital, it would be Mumbai. We’ve got it all: floods, sea-level rise, cyclones, heat islands. Mumbaikars are sick of being called resilient and being caught off-guard. But forecasting the monsoon is fraught, more so with climate change. My dispatch for @carbonbrief.org👇🏽

⏰ New study shows ambitious mitigation (1.5°C) saves 2X as much ice globally (53% left) than our current pathway, which will destroy >75% glacier ice once it fully adjusts to a warmer climate Every fraction of °C counts! +0.1°C warmer = 2% more glacier mass lost www.science.org/doi/10.1126/... 🌊🧪

“My house is one of many that burned down. This event, for me, has destroyed any boundary between my work as a climate scientist and the rest of my life.” Read more from NASA JPL scientist Ben Hamlington:

physics of climate impacts 101: - Stuff gets hot (worse heatwaves) - Hot air holds more water vapor (heavier rainfall) - Hot air is thirstier air (higher drought risk) - Warm water is hurricane food (stronger storms) - Hot water expands and hot ice melts (sea level rise)

have starter packs just unanimously won out over feeds? does anyone know how one can use a starter pack as a feed on here? 👀

My favorite time of year! A GIF 🧵 of #AGU24 talks and posters from group members and friends:

Stay in Salon I for a talk by @murushiv.bsky.social Thursday at 16:22 “Towards an Antarctic Ice Sheet Large Ensemble” agu.confex.com/agu/agu24/me...

The deep oil states send their regards. Been shilling for Big Ice at the COP29 cryosphere pavilion the last few days, drop by if you’re around!

digital twins this digital twins that where are the digital triplets?

I first worked on this icefield in 1981. Change was expected, but the change we are reporting in 2024 is breathtaking in scale and acceleration. Project led by masterfully by @bethandavies.bsky.social, coordinating many data streams. apnews.com/article/glac...

Omelas as a service

And as much as programs like the Voluntary Carbon Standard (now Verra) and the CDM and the Gold Standard and their peers have tried to make these things work, the way these organizations themselves have shifted, mutated, renamed, and reborn themselves is enough indication that there's problems afoot

Seismology is so cool! For @earthscope-sci.bsky.social, I dove into a recent paper about the fastest through-cutting fracture ever recorded in a floating ice shelf. ⚒️🧪 www.earthscope.org/news/crackin...

lowkey funny that the ATL Watershed's official "boil water advisory tips" youtube video is unlisted

sorry y’all are having ai problems with search. Mine is working fine

brb stocking up on conglomerates

Glimpses of the northern lights in southern skies what is this 👀

ok this is v cool

The short answer is that the demographics of the glaciology research community are stunningly misaligned with the communities that we seek to benefit through our research, along a number of different dimensions. Read the paper to see why it matters and what how we can make progress

Who does glaciology research? Who does it benefit? And why does it matter? We tackle these questions in a new study out in the Journal of Glaciology bit.ly/44jhI7o

"solar is the new oil" it sure is my dude

when your readings commiserate with you

so we're bringing back the ice trade? we're going to have an icebae all over the feeds soon, right?

THREE Scopes? In this atmosphere?

There's countless hours of archived footage — news reports, political speeches, historical events, documentaries, rare recordings, concert footage, obscure music — where the best or only copy is now held by Google through YouTube. What happens if that archival footage becomes unprofitable? (2/2)

My real worry with Google's voyage into enshittification (thanks to Cory Doctorow for the term) is YouTube. Through YT, for the past 15 years, the world has basically entrusted Google to be the custodian of pretty much our global video archive. (1/2)

🚨🤖💦🚨 Learn how we sped up high-fidelity subglacial hydrology modeling by 800x using machine learning in our new paper in GRL led by (former) postdoc Vincent Verjans. agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....

I also think this year the Hugos should be determined by writing down all the nominees on little scraps of paper and shaking them about in a big hat. That Kevin guy can get to decide how long the hat is shaken for

Our new paper out at Journal of Glaciology: "What can radar-based measures of subglacial hydrology tell us about basal shear stress?" led by GT undergrad (!) Rohaiz Haris, in collaboration with Winnie Chu 🧵 doi.org/10.1017/jog....

for extra credit, i will be turning in energy tech assignments solved in donkey power and pirate-ninja units en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...

after many many years, the kWh has once again made an appearance in my academic life

Trawling the feeds before a conference deadline paid off, I will henceforth be addressed only as an award winning poet.

@amitav.bsky.social with plenty of thoughtful reminders for the climate and earth scientists at #AGU23.

cryosky is growing! 🫡 🧊

Is the community of 🌊 level projection experts too accustomed to working with the scraps off the 💰 agency tables? I firmly believe that if the right 👀 can see how insufficient sea level projections are, the money will come. $20M won't be too much to ask. Let's 💭 big! What's our dream ask?!??😎 1/
