How are remote sensing, 鈥楤ig Data鈥�, and remotely operated vehicles working together to improve our understanding of the Greenland Ice Sheet?

On Thursday, March 2 from 12:30 pm - 2:00 pm, come hear Polar researcher Dr. Ginny Catania describe how 鈥楤ig Data鈥� has helped clarify the role topography plays in defining glacier termini in Greenland and how real observations of moraines at glacier terminus positions are needed to better understand ice sheet change. Impacts of Dr. Catania鈥檚 research extend to coastal environments around the world connected by a shared future of sea level rise and a need to better understand the pace and character of coastal change.
