Nice press on our recent #SubglacialLake paper in #AGUAdvances
"“There’s no other way to get carbon-14 in there,” Balco (who was not involved in the study) says. “You can’t push it through ice. Organisms can’t tunnel through. The only way for it to get it there is for ocean water to get under the ice sheet.”

This is a frankensteinian mishmash of results from older, recent, and upcoming papers, which I have somehow managed to cobble together.
Covers lessons learned about urban heat across scales and differences when using #heatstress metrics.
