New LIQUIDICE Scientific Publication in Remote Sensing

We’re excited to share a newly published study in Remote Sensing (Vol. 18, 1, 87), which provides new tools for understanding how glacier surface reflectivity (albedo) changes across different elevations in the Arctic.

LIQUIDICErs at the Svalbard Science Conference 2025

The LIQUIDICE team joined 345 participants from 15 countries at the Svalbard Science Conference 2025 — the key Arctic research event exploring Svalbard’s role in climate change, collaboration, and the fusion of science with art.

LIQUIDICE Seeks Postdoctoral Researcher on green transition, melting glaciers and climate adaptation in Kalaallit Nunaat (Greenland)

LIQUIDICE is hiring a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Copenhagen to explore climate adaptation, hydropower, and community resilience in Greenland—linking cryosphere change with social and political transformations in the Arctic.

Record Arctic melt of Svalbard glaciers in 2024 validates LIQUIDICE’s integrated glacier monitoring vision

A groundbreaking study published this month in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS) reveals that Svalbard experienced an unprecedented glacier melt during the summer of 2024—losing roughly 1% of its total ice mass, or 61.7 ± 11.1 gigatons, the highest recorded in modern observations. The study acknowledges support from the LIQUIDICE project and underscores the urgency and relevance of integrated glacier surveillance.

Advancing High-Resolution Climate Projections: Progress on Downscaling Strategy (Milestone 4 reached)

In LIQUIDICE, high-resolution climate data is critical for understanding how glaciers, snow, and water systems are changing across the Alps, Greenland, and Svalbard. Over the past months, our WP3 and WP4 teams have been working together to define how to generate kilometre-scale climate projections tailored to local research needs.

First LIQUIDICE Scientific Paper Published

The first scientific paper from the LIQUIDICE project has been published, introducing a new automated method for analyzing glacier radar data and revealing how Arctic ice structures are changing in response to climate warming.

Spring fieldwork in Svalbard

The team from the Institute of Geophysics of the Polish Academy of Sciences has completed spring fieldwork in Svalbard.

Fieldwork Update: GEUS Scientists Collect Critical Snow and Ice Data at LIQUIDICE Super-Site in Greenland

As part of the LIQUIDICE project, GEUS glaciologists are currently at a field campaign at the DYE-2 site on the Greenland Ice Sheet, located in the Kangerlussuaq catchment.

Three Days, One Mission: LIQUIDICE’s Contribution to Glaciers, Water, and Meteorology

World Day for Glaciers (March 21), World Water Day (March 22) and World Meteorological Day (March 23) are important events for the LIQUIDICE community.

Successful Kick-Off Meeting of the LIQUIDICE Project

The LIQUIDICE project officially commenced with a successful kick-off meeting held on February 26-27, 2025, at the Institute of Geophysics PAS in Warsaw, Poland. The event gathered over 50 participants (both in person and online).
