"By measuring tiny dips in sea level – just a few centimetres – we can now track the dense water cascades from space."

- @MatthisAuger on his breakthrough new study, showing how satellites can detect key variabilities in #Antarctic dense water overflows ⬇️

Satellites can now track the deep ocean currents around Antarctica that could accelerate climate change. @UTAS_ theconversation.com/tiny-dip… - The Conversation - Australia + New Zealand

Being able to monitor the overflow of #Antarctic dense waters from the continental shelf to deeper open waters is critically important, but has long been a major challenge for scientists.

New research led by @MatthisAuger could be a game-changer ⬇️ antarctic.org.au/satellite-o…

The major role of phytoplankton in reducing carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is well established, yet the factors controlling phytoplankton growth are not fully understood.

NASA initiated SnowEx to fill knowledge gaps related to remote sensing of snow, aiming to more accurately measure snow characteristics in a variety of terrains and vegetation canopies, check airborne measurements against ground-truth fieldwork & more. nsidc.org/data/snowex
