IMG_9745 (1)_p.jpg PHD scientist Ian Bartholomews theodolite tripod being used to measure the speed of the Russelll Glacier near Kangerlussuag 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. 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

366W5940_virgin.jpg An Air Greenland helicopter flies over the Jacobshavn glacier or Sermeq Kujalleq drains 7% of the Greenland ice sheet and is the largest glacier outside of Antarctica. It calves enough ice in one day to supply New York with water for one year. It is one of the fastest moving glaciers in the world at up to 40 metres per day (19 metres per day before 2002) and has also receeded rapidly (40 km since 1850) due to human induced climate change as temperatures have risen in Greenland by 9 degrees fahrenheit in the last 60 years. An underwater moraine at the mouth of the fjord grounds the largest icebergs causing a backlog of ice completely blocking the entire length of the fjord with ice.

IMG_1192_palm.jpg Melt water on the Greenland ice sheet near camp Victor north of Ilulissat. The Greenland ice sheet is the largest ice sheet outside of Antarctica. Temperatues have risen by nine degrees fahrenheit in Greenland in the last 60 years due to human induced climate change. This is causing the ice sheet to melt at unprecedented rates which is deeply worrying as the ice sheet contains enough water to raise global sea levels by nine metres.

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_0454_skidoo.jpg Tourists riding through a stinking fog of exhaust fumes from skidoos on the Langjokull ice sheet in Iceland. Like all of Iceland's glaciers it is retreating rapidly due to climate change. Scientists predict that all Icelands glaciers will be gone within 100 years. It is rather ironic that the tour guide mentioned they have to drive further to reach the ice sheet every year.

IMG_7395_protest.jpg A tourist at Jokulsarlon ice lagoon, one of the most visited places in Iceland. It has been created by the rapid retreat of the Breidamerkurjokull glacier which sweeps down off the Vatnajokull ice cap. Ice bergs calve off the front and float into the lagoon before floating out to sea when small enough. All of Icelands glaciers are retreating rapidly, and are predicted to disapear completely in the next 100 years. James Bond and Batman movies have been filmed at the ice lagoon.

IMG_9742_volcanic ash.jpg The snout of the Solheimajokull glacier on the Myrdalsjokull ice cap in Iceland. It was melting rapidly due to climate change, but is now melting even faster after the eruption of Eyjafjallajokull covered it in black ash, meaning that it absorbs more of the suns solar radiation. Scientists predict that all of Icelands glaciers will have disappeared within 100 years.
