Yes we Kamb!! Our new paper is out in @NatureGeosci about the history of Kamb Ice Stream, by first author @lawrenjk and working with our @AntarcticaNZ colleagues, funded by @NASAAstrobio and USAP. #Antarctica sciencenews.org/article/antarc…
Icefin's first science paper is out, part of a pair of papers from @GlacierThwaites ! bbc.com/news/science-e…
Looking for some help with upgrading my systems before our next deployment! Includes a "free" trip to Antarctica! (Probably. )
Looking for a full time engineer to join the lab! We work on under-ice space robots and @icefinrobot, so if you've done robots before and want to see Antarctica, this might be the opportunity for you! cornell.wd1.myworkdayjobs.com/en-US/CornellC…
"We know more about the 'dark side' of the moon than we know about what’s going on underneath the Ross Ice Shelf!" More on this supercool science here: ow.ly/syGu50HvCmC @otago @royalsocietynz @GeorgiaTech @BergenUib @IcefinRobot @niwa_nz @WomeninPolarSci
The @Icefinrobot team collected a remarkable survey with sonar, video and ocean data that explored the subglacial river hundreds of meters upstream from camp. @NSF
Using a new drill system, marine physicist Natalie Robinson @PolarGirlNZ and her fellow researchers have been able to collect intact samples of Antarctic platelet ice for the first time ever. @AntarcticaNZ Learn more ⬇️🎥
Big news - The KIS2 science team are back from the Kamb Ice Stream over 1000 km from Scott Base - worn out, but with a pile of amazing data. thread!

NGeo: Mounds and hills within Ceres’s Occator crater may have formed by freezing of water-rich impact-induced melt, by a process analogous to that of pingo formation on Earth nature.com/articles/s4156… Part of a Collection of new research from @NASA_Dawn nature.com/collections/ag…
The last observations of the Dawn mission to Ceres show tantalizing evidence that the dwarf planet bears striking similarities with Earth and Mars! Congratulations to the Pingo STARR team on their Nature Geoscience publication! To learn more, visit: buff.ly/33HtLy1 @NASA
Grad students Elizabeth Spiers talks about her experience at the Planetary Science Summer School, a program that essentially teaches students how to bring a space mission to life from beginning to end! jpl.nasa.gov/edu/news/2020/…
PI Dr. Britney Schmidt did a Twitter Q&A with @BulletinAtomic and answered some of your most frequently asked questions about Thwaites and Icefin as part of the #ThwaitesGlacierChat. Read it all on our blog! buff.ly/2OVg9a1
Join me in a discussion with Britney Schmidt, @lawrenjk and the @IcefinRobot team to learn about CTD measurements in Antarctica. They will discuss deep profiles and operations of the #IceFin under-ice ROV/AUV. Webinar is on 29 July. Register today.
Join the @IcefinRobot team Wednesday, July 29 at 12pm EDT to learn how they have used RBRconcertos and other CTDs in the McMurdo Sound, under the Ross Ice Shelf, and the Thwaites Glacier, both on the robotic vehicle and profiling CTDs through the ice. bit.ly/2OXz8kf
We may be social distancing, but the Icefin team is still #RemoteSciencing! Here’s what that looks like… LEGOs, multimeters, kiddie pools, computers, cats, and all! schmidt.eas.gatech.edu/2020/icefin-te…
Amazing visuals of climate change at Thwaites Glacier. Icefin makes an appearance in this great @FT article by @lesliehook about the work of the ITGC @GlacierThwaites teams.
The @IcefinRobot. Now exploring Thwaites Glacier, its long-term goal is seeking life in oceans on Jupiter's moon Europa. Part of a fantastic, but unsettling, project for the @FT with @lesliehook and @sdbernard: an in-depth look at threats to Thwaites as Earth warms #infographic
