#TopographyTuesday | For decades, Antarctica’s interior remained one of the last blank spaces on Earth’s maps. Beneath ice up to 4 kilometers thick lies a rugged landscape of buried mountain ranges, deep valleys, marine basins, and hundreds of subglacial lakes.

Ice sheets in melting sea, night, Baltic Sea, Usedom
The sounds of the sea return as the temperatures rise & the ice melts.
It’s both welcome & strange after weeks of freezing temperatures, slithery surfaces & white expanses.
It’s also a reminder how fast ice melts & that we have no time to lose.

Rising ground in the #Antarctic can lift melting #IceSheets, mitigating #SeaLevelRise—an effect many #climate models have not taken into account. In PNAS Journal Club: https://ow.ly/b5bR50YhGtH

One year into the ESA Digital Twin (DT) Earth Ice Sheets project ❄️@eo4cryo.bsky.social and @tabea-rettelbach.bsky.social with other @esa.int DTs at the science meeting in Frascati to present the pre-operational dtc-ice-sheets.org & new ideas for holistic data cubes 🛰️🌐 #DigitalTwinEarth #IceSheets
#Antarctica: Recent research has revealed the landscape under Antarctica's ice in unprecedented detail, something scientists say could greatly enhance our understanding of the frozen continent.

Scientists Push for More Ambitious Climate Targets
Researchers say a line has been crossed. For systems like #CoralReefs and #IceSheets, the #climate is already past safe.

⚡️ #IceSheets - the massive frozen expanses that cover #Greenland & #Antarctica - contain about two-thirds of the freshwater on #earth ⚡️ #ClimateChange is already causing them to melt and raising sea levels around the world.

Half a glacier collapsed in the span of 2 months. CNN link, right on the top of the webpage. Everyone needs to see it. Dear Canadians stop that budget from going through. This is horrifying.

Sea level during the last interglacial (Eemian) ~2 degree warming Global mean sea level was 6-9m higher tha. Today Peak high stand likely 8m higher
Coming back to this at #NCKF25 where my former boss (+IPCC lead author) Jens Hesselbjerg Christensen is looking at #Eemian #SeaLevelRise
Not quite as catastrophic as the MWP1a but still large. I wonder if this has been updated recently at all? […]

What are climate tipping points? They sound scary, especially for ice sheets and oceans, but there’s still room for optimism

Figure showing sea level rising after the last glacial, a black curve tracing a z-shaped line with coloured blobs indicating the palaeoproxy datasets the line is based on.
This plot on wikipedia was made by @RARohde based on data published in late 90s and early 00s. Wondering if this has been updated or if there is new understanding on any of these palaeo records?

Maybe @DrEvanGowan has thoughts? Anyone else?
A “glacial forebulge” is a long hill that forms in front of an ice sheet.🧊
In @eos.org, the authors of a recent review article give an overview of glacial forebulges, how scientists study them, and what questions remain.

Now that we know of 12 more sub glacial lake -filling and drainage events in Antarctica, the connection to the ice stream velocities or calving frequency would be very interesting…
