This Wednesday (June 3rd) at 11H45 CEST we will give an overview seminar presentation about OGGM-Edu: edu.oggm.org. The talk will be given via zoom and is open to all! Please DM us if you would like to get the link. (more infos: uibk.ac.at/acinn/graduate-se…)

Stuck at home with your kids? This #Glacier explorer might be a nice way to learn about glaciers and their climate: edu.oggm.org/en/latest/explo…
We know it's a bit sciency with graphs, but maybe good for kids > 12 yo? We'd love to hear your feedback!!! #ScienceStory #CoolScience
We just published a new version of our "World Glacier Explorer" app: edu.oggm.org/en/latest/explo… (not suitable for mobile devices). Learn about #Glaciers & #ClimateChange! Feedback welcome!
Made possible thanks to @HoloViz_org @datashader @BokehPlots @mybinderteam @ProjectJupyter ♥️
If the forecast is right, the highest water level ever observed in Bergen will be easily exceeded Monday night. And many other places in Vestlandet will see record-high water levels! #sehavniva
Where ocean and ice meet: great video about the peculiarities of the Antarctic ice sheet @TiPACCs_EU @NORCEresearch

An extra high tide, strong wind and low air pressure make for high sea levels in Bergen, almost flooding the old harbour city: a glimpse into the future?
The rain stopped and the clouds lifted just in time for our outdoor poster session at #imc #innsbruck And to reveal the first snow on the mountains this season. @imountainconf
Workshops are in full swing at our summer school on Mountain Research. In between there is time to soak up some sunshine. And enjoy the view! And take a group picture. @uniinnsbruck @imountainconf @MtnResearch #obergurgl
Our International Summer School on Mountain Research preceding the #IMC #innsbruck started yesterday. @uniinnsbruck @MtnResearch youtu.be/s1xt8bqnBl8 via @YouTube

We are getting ready :-) - looking very much forward to the most comprehensive International Conference exclusively focusing on Mountain research! @MtnResearch @uniinnsbruck #IMC #innsbruck imc2019.info
Fronts in alpine rivers: a glacier-fed river from the north-facing side of the valley meets a river with pure mountain spring water from the south-facing side. Always fascinating when these two meet...

Thunderstorms and lots of melting snow in the mountains make for closed bridges and water levels above the 30-yr level in the Inn in the middle of Innsbruck

A new paper from the OGGM team is out for review! How much information do today's glaciers carry about their past evolution? We haven't the full answer yet but we are working towards it
Discussion open for comments: Initialization of a global glacier model based on present-day glacier geometry and past climate information: an ensemble approach doi.org/10.5194/tc-2019-68
The world map according to tide gauges: preparing my lecture at #unibremen on why it can be a bit of a hassle to reconstruct 20th century sea-level change. Any ideas? ;-)

Come and see the rare case of an advancing glacier and how to use it to teach about climate change at #EGU2019 on Monday PICO4, 10:45

Join a great team of international lecturers and PhDs for 2 weeks discussing and learning about climate dynamics and the Anthropocene. The #acdcsummerschool application deadline is April 1st! Here a glimpse of the team from ACDC2018 #climate #summerschool
