Done!

Every other country would have to almost double its current investment in research for this pipe dream to happen.
Far more likely is that global scientific research decreases by about half.
That is bad for every hope people might have for cures, energy technologies, etc.

This was a collaboration between Guy Paxman & Edmund Lea @geogdurham.bsky.social and myself! There's plenty here for #GeographyTeachers to support their GIS and cold environments teaching. @rgs-ibgschools.bsky.social @gasigict.bsky.social

Yes, sorry, message was unclear - I would suggest listing them as ‘In prep, full draft stage’ or similar, if you’re ECR without a publication record yet. I would list ones that aren’t at that stage (I have dozens currently ‘in prep’!)

It’s tricky for job-hunting ECRs, especially as it can take a multi-author paper a while to complete the route to submission. Indicating ‘in prep’ papers that are at the full manuscript stage on a cv can be helpful

Every tenth of a degree matters, and we should urgently seek to curb emissions to retain our reserves of snow and ice. At a local scale, nature based solutions can support adaptation and build community resilience.

Glacier shrinkage and eventual disappearance will decrease downstream water availability, and could contribute to extreme droughts in the arid and semi-arid Andes, impacting food and water security to populations along the length of the Andes.

Extreme weather events are likely to become more frequent and severe, with heat stress, forest fires, floods and landslides threatening local communities.

The brief is Available in English and Spanish. We show how glaciers are shrinking. Andean glaciers are thinning by an average of 0.7 m per year, ~35% faster than the global average.
