Climate Change & Cryosphere – Can the smallest ice make the greatest impact?

Lucia Pérez-Serrano June 28, 2024

The cryosphere comprises all the ice on Earth, from glaciers in Antarctica, icebergs floating in the ocean, to millimetric ice found in the soils. Soil can hold ice wedges and ice lenses, but there are small ice reservoirs that are usually overlooked: the pore ice. Pore ice is an unknown compartment whose role regarding matter …[Read More]

About

Welcome to the blog of the Cryospheric Sciences (CR) Division of the European Geosciences Union. The aim of the blog is to get you, the reader, excited about all things related to ice, whether it be the tiniest ice crystals, permafrost, snow drifts, beautiful mountain glaciers or the vast polar ice sheets. Here, the latest fieldwork programmes, research projects, and scientific discoveries will be showcased by authors from within the cryospheric community.
