What have you done over the last 5 yrs (Sept, 2018-July, 2023)? Sadly my fav glacier (Klinaklini) has lost 5 Gt of water. 😪Cloudy shots omitted. B. Floyd @VIUniversity @UNBC @HakaiInstitute met station.
Greenland summer melt has finally begun. A nice late start helped Greenland gain a good bit of extra mass...

Twitter API changes means auto-posts aren't working.
A cold spring (despite record ocean warmth) means less runoff or more snowfall than usual.
This is good for Greenland mass balance. It is now at the (recent historical) average mass change for this date.

The triple point occurs where the solid, liquid, and gas transition curves meet. It's the only condition in which all three phases can coexist, and is unique for every material. Water reaches it at 0.01° C and at a pressure of 0.006 atm

Hi, I'm Milan. I build climate models. Takes ~1h but yes, you need a PhD for that. All models are wrong but some are useful? I think my models are pretty useful already: They include ocean, land, sea ice, land ice, deserts, solar radiation, and even axial tilt and precession.

Stefan saw a patch of brown snow on the sea ice in the Arctic. With some colleagues they struggled for days trying to understand what they were looking at. In the end the solution was simpler than expected.🐻❄️

Today Greenland is net-0 mass for the calendar year. For rest of the summer it will be contributing to sea level rise. Then gaining mass again from September through December. This is why the hydrologic year is offset from the calendar year.
