Your third helping of icy @IAGLeeds geophysics at #EGU18: awesome radar structures in #LarsenC ice shelf! Come ponder with me over a beer - Weds 17.30, X5.414. @MIDASOnIce @EGU_CR

Nine months of #ESA_EO #Sentinel1 data compressed into a couple of seconds. Bon voyage A68.

A68 takes a chunk out of Larsen C Ice Shelf (#Sentinel1) @ESA_EO

With sunlight now reaching Antarctica, we can see the Larsen C iceberg (A-68A) in incredible detail: earthobservatory.nasa.gov/IO…

Giant iceberg on the move - @CopernicusEU #Sentinel1 sees #A68 drifting away from #Antarctic ice shelf esa.int/spaceinimages/Images…

Drifting away is largely result of wind : earth.nullschool.net/#curren… For break-off (hi)story check @MIDASOnIce 's projectmidas.org/

After some initial back-and-forth movement, #LarsenC 's iceberg #A68 seems on drift now in @ESA_EO 's #sentinel1 composites

Offshore foehn winds have opened up the sea ice giving A68 the best chance yet to start sailing away from Larsen C. #Sentinel1 8th September
It’s about one or two kilometers in the north, and a bit more in the south, where the rift was wider to begin with teapaw.org/shaungvw/status/887608… – at Swansea, Wales

This is going down in an hour’s time - ask me whether I’d rather fight an iceberg-sized penguin or 100 penguin-sized icebergs teapaw.org/mewo2/status/885809499… – at Black Pill, Wales
