Thanks Paul and to everyone who was able to come and enjoy our off piste celebrations. I simply LOVED it. Blessed with so many class and clever colleagues and friends
There aren't enough characters allowed on X to sum up the monster contribution @ChrisClarkofBC made on the palaeoglaciology field. I'm so privileged to have been be part of your journey & your retirement bash was such a good laugh. Enjoy the farm & only the stuff you want to do!

As Uni management continues to disrupt our work, it's important to remember the background. Part of UCU series State of the Uni 24-5, here's a summary of the vandalistic acts that led to the closure of the Archaeo Dept at Sheff Uni. Share! @sheffielducu ucu.group.shef.ac.uk/campaig…

I don’t know how many glacial geos are still here, but I’m trying to get the word out reg graduate research opportunities in my group for next year. Please distribute as you see fit. Some details can be found here (a few more will likely be added soon): earthstrata.org/opportunitie…

Happy #PolarPride2024 from the QRA!! 🏳️🌈🐻❄️
Today we get to celebrate the contributions of LGBTQ+ scientists to polar research. Many thanks to all our Quaternary members that help contribute to an inclusive research atmosphere.
Thank you @Tom_Coulthard , I am mighty delighted, and grateful for so many nice colleagues and fun work.
Blimey, i need to take a look at this paper, looks great, landforms and modelling water under under ice

Don't miss the online talk of @LegerTancrede at the @LandscapesLive this Thursday (16:00 Paris time) on the latest modelling the European Alpine Ice Field during the LGM at high resolution with IGM.
Fantastic looking ice sheet modelling job for someone and in a great team

Argentière Glacier Little Ice Age moraines 🥰
Ice margin ~350 m form the church during the 17th century and maybe 600 m when Aimé Civiale took his picture in 1861 ! 🧊❄️🥶

Impressive bird's-eye view of one of the most outstanding Alpine glacier, Les Bossons ! 🤩
His majesty is now dirty and full of holes...
Painful for what used to be a steep, endless, immaculate white streak running diagonally across the valley ❄️⚡️

And what an absolute cracker it turned out to be. Ribbed Moraines galore. Your super thick thesis on my shelf has terrified numerous PhDs in progress
Good to see they revamped our old lecture theater in Elmwood Avenue! The last time I spoke in this room was 1999 before heading to Sheffield to do my PhD with @ChrisClarkofBC

#Glaciersonbeaches .... Definitely a future research direction @glaciologytim. East Greenland, and the Blosseville coast in particular, is truly extraordinary #KangGlac project @GeogDurham @BAS_News

A draft chapter from Geography and A Geographer: Essays in Memory of Ron Johnston. It offers memories of Ron as inspiration for critical and pragmatic quantitative geography keeping the emphasis on geography & social science, not just data & computation.
