IMG_0036_cool.jpg The Russells Glacier draining the Greenland icesheet inland from Kangerlussuaq on Greenlands west coast. This glacier has speeded up in recent years and is also receeding rapidly due to human induced climate change. Greenland has warmed nine degrees fahrenheit in the last 60 years. Scientists believe the glacier is moving faster as increased quantities of meltwater are flowing down through moulins to reach the base of the glacier which then acts as a lubricant and allows the glacier to flow faster.

IMG_9687_scientist.jpg PHD student Ian Bartholomew from Edinburgh University taking readings from the meltwater river at the snout of the Russell Glacier near Kangerlussuaq in Greenland. The study is looking at how increasing quantities of melt water caused by climate change are affecting the glaciers speed which like most glaciers in Greenland has speeded up considerably in the last 20 years. It is thought that the meltwater helps lubricates the glaciers base enabling it to flow faster.

It is thought that the meltwater helps lubricates the glaciers base enabling it to flow faster. As part of the study reflective poles were drilled 4 metres into the ice to measure their speed at various positions on the glacier. Within a month all the poles had fallen over as the glacier melted down over 4 metres

366W5383_measurement.jpg Scientific equipment measuring the meltwater from the Russell Galcier that drains the Greenland Ice Sheet 26 km inland from Kangerlussuaq. Like most Greenland glaciers it is both receeding and speeding up as a result of global warming and the rivers that drain them are becoming more swollen by greater quantities of melt water

366W5703_flight.jpg An American Air Force flight approaching Kangerlussuaq Airport on Greenland after a resupply flight to the science base on the summit of the Greenland Ice sheet. Skis on the plane allow it to land and take off on ice and snow. There is an increasing interest in scientific research on the Greenland ice sheet as it is starting to melt rapidly. This is a concern as the ice sheet contains enough water to raise global sea levels by nine metres

366W9172_plane.jpg A plane at Kangerlussuaq airport on Greenland being used to fly transect flights over the Greenland ice sheet to measure air pollution from forest fires in Siberia. This project is part of the International Polar Year. The soot from forest fires settles out on the ice sheet darkening the surface layer. This causes the ice to absorb more of the suns energy and melt even faster.
