As #COP30 heats up, superb visual storytelling in @nytimes.com about climate change & the threat of glacial lake outburst floods in the Himalaya, featuring the work of @cscottwatson.bsky.social and quotes from @kristencook.bsky.social @sonamshp.bsky.social and me. 🧪⚒️ www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

I am excited to announce the publication of our manuscript entitled "Investigating the influence of climate seasonality on glacier mass changes in HMA via GRACE observations" on IEEE JSTARS with @HIRSlab. Here is a link publication: ieeexplore.ieee.org/abstract/docum… #GRACESatellite
