Wow, George VI Ice Shelf on the #Antarctic Peninsula looks very wet 💦 this melt season! Possibly even more so than in the 2019/2020 summer when we mapped a 32-year record high extent in meltwater ponding? 🤔 🧪 #climatechange @cires.colorado.edu

Beautiful Sentinel-2 imagery of George VI Ice Shelf with lots of meltwater from yesterday. The patterns that this water produces is like artwork! Fossil Bluff is shown in the second image, and Hodgson Lake shown in the last - a former subglacial lake sealed under ice thick perennial ice ❄️
