Ruth MottramFascinating talk from J P Steffensen of #nielsBohrInstitute on the ravages that a 2 year #COVID19 gap in visits to #EGRIPcamp.
The #icecore science trenches needed completely reconstructing, it took 2.mobths to dig out the camp, all done by hand!
Amazingly they even managed to start taking #EGRIP ice core again...

It's interesting because changes far inland at the #EGRIP #IceCore site have also been observed as @agrinsted published earlier this year, but here they consider them to be sign of #IceMaterial properties rather increased melting

The large North East Greenland Ice Stream is speeding up. It is accelerating at the front, it is accelerating in the back, and also in between. Changes to #NEGIS is important for #SeaLevelRise because it is a large part of the #Greenland mass budget.
