Team photo from our 2022 expedition to Tierra del Fuego, Chile. Our first paper is now published in QSR. We discuss the breakup of the former Patagonian Ice Sheet and evidence for glacial lake formation and drainage. @huynh_carla @EdinGlaciology eur02.safelinks.protection.o…

Really excited to see that the project I contributed towards during my @SheffieldPAC MRes has been published today! We mapped nearly 200,000 landforms and compiled a database of geochronometric ages in order to reconstruct past Greenland Ice Sheet evolution from 14-6.5 ka

A successful field season in Tierra del Fuego studying Late Glacial and Holocene glaciation! We were back on Isla Santa Inés and also Arroyo Pagels, a valley in the eastern Cordillera Darwin on Isla Grande @QuaternaryRA_UK @mef_org @GeolSoc @JohnMuirTrust @ScotSAGES @SES_explore

We have a job opportunity to work in Edinburgh’s Cosmogenic Nuclide Laboratory as a Lab Tech. A great opportunity for the right person. DM with questions and feel free to share widely! elxw.fa.em3.oraclecloud.com/…

First footage of this kind! 🎥🔥 Glacier detachment and 'liquefaction' at Torres del Paine (Patagonia, Chile), likely down to the moraine-dammed progl. lake. This occurs during current scorching heatwave. Simply. terrifying. Source:@MyleneJac @ARGlaciares instagram.com/reel/Co0RvJvAP…

I am angry 😡. On strike over pensions, pay, increasing job precarity and unsustainable workloads. The worst part of the story: it doesn't have to be this way! UK Universities are being sabotaged: see the very apt article below for a summary of what is happening 👇 @ucuedinburgh

The Magellan Strait showing us who’s boss. We turned around and waited a night for winds and waves to ease! 🤪 @huynh_carla @EdinGlaciology @GeosciencesEd – at Punta Arenas, Chile

I’m buzzing after an incredible field season around the Magellan Strait in southernmost South America with @huynh_carla. My first boat-based field work. I learned that I don’t get sea sick, and that I do not own waterproof pants or boots. 😂🌧️ @EdinGlaciology @EileenTisdall – at Punta Arenas, Chile

What did you do during the last 15 years? Mer de Glace did this...! This is exactly how long I have been working on this site. The moraine on the left is my main study site. Rate of lowering of the base-level, accelerated here, is stunning! (~80 m) Source @eb_climate_data

#Cosmo2022 has been a great opportunity to get to know my colleagues a bit better. Ceilidh (Scottish dance), home BBQ, and a field trip were all great times to chat ☺️
