We knew it! Well before others!
Similar observations and (unpublished 😅) conclusion made with @FMassonnet and others in 2015 while observing peppercorns acting as small ballons in gin tonic: youtu.be/4Ub4efrw3Eg?si=T2Um…

Today we had the chance to welcome the great @HarryZeko . He gave a bright lecture on the past and futur fate of #glaciers worldwide. I learnt that there are more than 200,000 of them (glaciers, not Harries, unfortunately). Cool science ahead with his #ERC Starting Grant!

nature.com/articles/s41558-0… The consequences of climate change can be felt everywhere. In a study published in @NatureClimate, we show how Antarctic meteorites are threatened by global warming. Every year, over 5000 meteorites are lost from the surface of the ice sheet. How? [1/7]
