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

366W2826_p.jpg Moor House National Nature Reserve in the North Pennines has been a site of scientific research going back 50 years. Weather records show a gradual warming over the last 50 years and a dramatic decline in winter snow cover. This has started to alter some of the specialised arctic plant communities and has also affected the carbon budget of the upland blanket peat bog. Peat bogs should be carbon sinks but due to rising temperatures the carbon budget of the bogs is changeing to a carbon deficit. The picture shows the specialist equipment used to measure carbon release from the peat bog.

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
