First-ever borehole drilled underneath an ice sheet delivers interesting results: "Greenland’s groundwater system responds rapidly and sensitively to relatively minor ice sheet forcing."

Here's a quaint map depicting the EGIG 1949 ascent route up the Greenland Ice Sheet to Camp IV. They went from sea-level to 1080 m elevation in c. 30 km.
What are Greenlandic glaciers doing in the wintertime? I have received funding from @VILLUMFONDEN to find out. In line with the "Villum Experiment" philosophy we will pursue the wild idea of directly measuring freshwater at a glacier front. https://twitter.com/VILLUMFONDEN/status/1437659690079596547
Sover svampe? Gik istids-forfædre i dvale. Det er 2 af de 51 spørgsmål, som årets Experiment-modtagere nu skal forsøge at finde svar på. Projekterne er udvalgt blandt næsten 400 ansøgninger i en anonym udvælgelsesproces #VillumExperiment #science #dkforsk https://veluxfoundations.dk/da/villum-experiment-2021
@icymatters @VILLUMFONDEN Hvor spændende! Tillykke!

The #Greenland #ice sheet experienced an odd melt season with low-melt conditions disrupted by the occasional extreme #melt event. Melt measured at the ice sheet margin by @PromiceGL was above average beyond uncertainty, but only in "the middle" -> not up north or down south.
just completed major work for upkeep of QAS stations as part of the @PROMICE network on southern Greenland ice 😅
PROMICE weather data now fully transparent
/0 Comments/in News /by promice_geus_dkThe Programme for Monitoring the Greenland Ice Sheet has published a full description of calculations, code and models behind the automatic weather stations located in the ice sheet making it easier for researchers all over to incorporate the information. A PROMICE automatic weather station (UPE_U) photographed on 4 August 2018. The numbers shown in the […]
