❄️The Centre for Polar Ecology seeks a postdoctoral researcher focusing on cryosphere dynamics in the Arctic. 🏔️ 🎓The postdoc will strengthen our geoscience laboratory, which currently works on recent glacier dynamics, paraglacial geomorphology, and paleoreconstructions. Interested? More info in 🧵👇

Ferdinand Glacier (Svalbard) 1908 | 2018 Svalbard is the most rapidly warming place on Earth! 🔥 We are going back there to early Holocene glacier levels BUT without the same forcings! ☀️ 🌍 We wouldn't be witnessing this colapse today without human emissions. 🏭 journals.muni.cz/CPR/article/...

Take a look at these whale remains. They belong to a creature that once got stranded on a beach and couldn’t make it back to the sea. Except this beach is now several hundred meters inland and dozens of meters above sea level. How is that possible? And why does it matter? New paper alert! 🙂 👇 🧵

Hello Svalbard! Working hard near the Czech station Nostoc in Petuniabukta. Here are some amazing pictures from our teammember Jan Kavan. He is doing some UAV surveying. Left picture: Hørbyebreen outwash plain Right picture: Ragnarbreen and its proglacial lake dammed by the LIA moraine

The search for life on Mars. That’s the main mission of Lucas Fernandez, a graduate of the Faculty of Science at the University of South Bohemia. 🧵👇

Oh, hello Svalbard! A completely new perspective on "our" archipelago thanks to so-called framonauts from the board of the spaceship Crew Dragon.

Did you know that from 2000 to 2020, retreat of marine-terminating glaciers exposed >2,400 km of new Arctic coastline? www.nature.com/articles/s41... Congratulations, @mettebendixen.bsky.social, @cpecz.bsky.social, Jan Kavan, Matt Strelecki, and co., on your excellent paper!

New coasts emerging from the retreat of Northern Hemisphere marine-terminating glaciers in the twenty-first century - Nature Climate Change

As marine-terminating glaciers retreat, they reveal new coastlines in many regions. Here the authors use satellite data to quantify these changes for the Northern Hemisphere, finding that between 2000...

We are stoked to present a brand-new @natclimchange.bsky.social paper by our Jan Kavan! ❤️ Did you know that between 2000 and 2020, retreat of marine-terminating glaciers has exposed more than 2,400 km of new coastline in the Arctic? 🧵👇

New paper just arrived! Did you know there are trees in the High Arctic? They indeed are, just a little bit small. Just couple of centimetres. But they are a very important part of the ecosystem! 🧵👇
