From the halls of #WAISworkshop to… the halls of Congress with @warren.senate.gov I guess 🫣 www.warren.senate.gov/newsroom/pre...
An extra perk of #WAISworkshop: exploring the Butterfly Rainforest exhibit, ecosystem trails, and hunting (unsuccessfully) for gators on the University of Florida—Gainesville campus.
Looking forward to presenting our work at #WAISWorkshop this morning!

So much cool science today!
But so clear (as usual) that we need so much more investment in studying the WAIS and how much and how fast we can expect sea level rise.
#HowMuchHowFast #WAISWorkshop
What happens in Antarctica doesn’t stay in Antarctica.
#WAISWorkshop kicks off with the kicker
A selection of pins from Antarctic science conferences, including a Polar Pride pin—a rainbow polar bear and penguin
Packing polar pins…
Can’t wait to see some polar science peoples at #WAISWorkshop

Jeremy Bassis presents his new ice process modelling project “DOMINOS” at the #itgc #waisworkshop, explaining they meant the game not the pizza chain.
Look at all those acronyms! Ted Scambos of @NSIDC presents on overview of all the @NSF_OPP and @NERCPlanetEarth funded Thwaites programs at the #WAISWorkshop
Tish Yager reminds us all that melting ice sheets affect more than just sea level #WAISworkshop
Maya of @sioglaciology gives a lightning talk on her poster today at #WAISWorkshop
Susheel shows us basal melt rates for all ice shelves 1994-2016 and compares to steady state,
singles out Amery as an in balance ice shelf. [Why is it so stable with so much basal and surface melt, crevassing, refreezing? So much to learn there.] #WAISWorkshop @AusAntarctic
Shout out by Jeremy Bassis to the absent @LaurencePadman at #WAISWorkshop; JB is asking how important tides are for controlling basal melting under ice shelves. Come back Laurie!
Finally, and correct me if I am wrong but this may actually be the first time ever, accurate gender representation in a #WAISworkshop session!
I'm declaring science conference twitter basically dead @MinesGlaciology #WAISworkshop with only 30 tweets and most of them complaining of lack of tweets
