Let me share a picture of marvelous #Jostedalsbreen on today's #WorldDayForGlaciers. 💫 #Norway is rich in glaciers and ice caps, but their number is likely to reduce by 98% by the end of the 21st century. 👇🧵 Are Norway's #fossifuels truly a source of wealth or rather a threat to it? #ClimateAction

The picture shows a mountaineous Norwegian landscape with steep and jagged mountain tops on an overcast day. There's almost no vegetation apart from a bit of moss and the ground. The foreground shows a scree field and side ice patches of glacier Skålabreen are visible. The picture shows the view from the top of Mt Skåla towards glacier Jostedalsbreen. A branch of Jostedalsbreen, Ramnefjellsbreen, hangs on top of Mt Ramnefjell. The picture is taken in August 2024, thus all snow has melted and it's branches and cracked ice eges are nicely visible. The glaciers fingers reach down a steep wall of Ramnefjell which ends in lake Lovatnet that has a magnificent turqoise color. In the background rises the vast, smoothly shaped expanse of the main part of Jostedalsbreen. The scenary looks very majestetic as it combines the stunning view of steep and rough mountains, glaciers, turquoise waters, and a heterogeneous cloudy sky with deep contrasts.

📚 New paper alert! 🧵 agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1029/... 🧪 We present a unique dataset of 465 (!) in situ measurements of the #water_isotopes in vapor up to 1500m above the #Greenland Ice Sheet. 🌍 We demonstrate the use of water isotope profiles to reveal gaps in climate model physics.

Picture of a measurement site on the Greenland Ice Sheet. In the foreground is a fixed‐wing uncrewed aerial system (UAS), looking like a small, light plane with a wing span of 3 m. The UAS is prepared for take-off on a launching system with a high pressure flask that is filled with air through a connected compressor. In the background are white, heated measurement cabin and a turbulence measurement system (eddy covariance) that is connected with a thick bundle of cables to the cabin.
