LinkIng and Quantifying the Impacts of climate change on inlanD ICE, snow cover, and permafrost on water resources and society in vulnerable regions
✨Do you know what day it is today?
❄️It’s #WorldSnowDay!
🌍#Snow plays a crucial role in Earth’s #energy #balance, #water #resources and #permafrost stability.
☃️Our project leader will explain why snow matters more than ever in a changing #climate️.

❄️ As part of #LIQUIDICE, an autumn campaign was carried out on #HansGlacier #Spitsbergen.

⚠️ Since the late 1980s, its mass balance has been monitored as clearly negative.

💦 The glacier loses about 1.5 m of #water equivalent yearly.

😍 Stunning views make up for the tough #Arctic #fieldwork

🎈 Last weekend, our Project Coordinator, Bartłomiej Luks, together with Agata Goździk and Agnieszka Kowalik, took part in the family Science Picnic “My City” in Warsaw.

❄️ They shared knowledge about polar research and the goals of #LIQUIDICE as part of the project’s #dissemination activities.

📢Record #Arctic melt on #Svalbard in summer 2024
~1% of total #ice mass lost. Comparable to #Greenland.

🚨New scientific publication led by Prof. Thomas Vikhamar Schuler (University of Oslo) confirms the validity of the #glacier monitoring.

🌍 In LIQUIDICE, we’re building km-scale climate projections to support local studies in the Alps, Svalbard & Greenland.
Discussions among modellers brought us on a clear path:
— Models to downscale ✅
— Bias corrections ✅
— Scenarios (SSP3-7.0, SSP5-8.5) ✅
— Tailored methods for temp & precip ✅
