Cryosphere and Cryospheric Science

2021
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Fifth Assessment Report (AR5) states that it is extremely likely that more than half of the observed increase in global average surface temperature from 1951 to 2010 was caused by the anthropogenic increase in greenhouse gas concentrations and other anthropogenic forcing together.

Cryosphere Aesthetics

2023
This essay proposes a mini-toolkit for ‘cryosphere aesthetics’: the conceptual foundations providing a guide for action for positive environmental change. The essay emphasizes the significance of global and intergenerational aesthetics since climate change means that we must take on board transspatial and trans-temporal phenomena ...

Cryosphere Sciences with NISAR

2021 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium IGARSS, 2021
Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) is the ideal instrument for observing polar regions, with its ability to see through clouds and operate during the long polar nights. Since the launch of ERS-1 in 1991, the international constellation of SARs has enabled great progress in our understanding of sea ice, ice sheets, and glaciers.

Preparing for a diminished cryosphere

Sustainability Science, 2021
The global implications of a rapidly diminishing Cryosphere urge a human-centered framework to address the sustainability and equity concerns arising from impacts of cryospheric change and economic development. This more inclusive paradigm would enable research and policy approaches premised on causalities, historical injustices, and needs for ...
