A reminder that abstract submission for the @igsoc.bsky.social Symposium on Ice Streams & Outlet glaciers @geogdurham.bsky.social closes 24th March. We're looking forward to presentations from both contemporary & palaeo perspectives to encourage cross-pollination of ideas & research approaches! ❄️⚒️🧪
