Jökulsárlón bei Sturm
Heute zeigt sich die Lagune rauer – der Wind treibt das eisige Wasser gegen die scharfkantigen Brocken, die ständig in Bewegung sind. Dramatische Kulisse mit blauen Reflexionen unter grauen Wolken. Übrigens bleibt der See auch im tiefsten Winter eisfrei, da Salzwasser aus dem Atlantik hereindrängt.

❄️Between the last glacial maximum & today, humans were exposed to severely rising sea levels 🌊 & recurrent phases of strong abrupt cooling events.🥶 #MPIM researchers have uncovered the origin of these strong temperature fluctuations over the past 20,000 years using a novel coupled climate-ice sheet model. They found that #iceberg armadas 🧊🧊🧊 & changed river courses were responsible for #AMOC weakening & abrupt cooling.

Scientists thought this Antarctic sea floor would be barren. But it's teeming with life
When the crew aboard an ocean science expedition learned that an iceberg the size of Chicago had broken off from an Antarctic ice shelf, they knew they had to stop what they were doing and go check it out. But they didn't expect to find a rich and flourishing ecosystem.

…The scientists didn’t think much life could thrive tucked under such a thick blanket of ice.

But what the team members found under the #iceberg surprised them: giant sea spiders, octopuses, ice fish, corals & sponges, including a vase-shaped one that might be hundreds of years old. In total, the researchers believe they will be able to identify dozens of #NewSpecies from the expedition.

EurekAlert!Thriving Antarctic ecosystems found in wake of recently detached icebergWhen an iceberg nearly the size of Chicago broke away in January from a massive floating glacier attached to the Antarctic Peninsula ice sheet, an international team of scientists aboard Schmidt Ocean Institute's research vessel Falkor (too) became the first to investigate an area of the seafloor never before accessible to humans. In the pristine icy waters, they discovered a vibrant, thriving ecosystem of marine life, captured for the first time on film.

It's been a crazy time which has affected my posting. Archie is settling in well, but we are training him to be better equipped to have alone time. And then there is the chaos of the world situation at the moment.

It's hard to find calmness. This image is called Jagged Mirror, which many of you will identify as being taken in Jökulsárlón Iceland. A heavily touristed location, but having visited it for over a decade, a pretty special one.

Light blue icebergs sit calmly in lightly rippling waters in Iceland's Jökulsárlón glacial lagoon. The background of the scene is completely obscured by fog, leaving only the jagged forms of ice mirrored by the water.
