20120206_IMG_5892.jpg Workmen start the initial groundworks for 3 wind turbines to be constructed behind the kirkstone Pass Inn on kirkstone Pass in the Lake District, UK. Because of its remote location, the pub is not connected to the grid and currently spends £25,000 a year on a diesel generator. The wind turbines will vastly reduce the need for the generator and are the first wind turbines to get planning permission in the National Park.

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

IMG_7399 (1)_ice window.jpg A tourist at Jokulsarlon ice lagoon framed by a melting ice berg. Jokulsarlon is 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_1669_flood damage.jpg On saturday 18th July 2009 70 mm of rain fell over the north East UK onto already saturated ground. The river Wear burst its banks, innundating the floodplain around the city of Durham and flooding many properties. As the water in the river started to drop, a section of the banking collapsed into the river. The flood water that was held back on the floodplain now suddenly had a shortcut back into the river. As the floodwaters tore back into the river channel they eroded a huge gully that has been called the Durham Canyon. The erosion feature is up to 15 feet deep, up to 100 feet across and 200 yards long. 12,000 cubic metres of soil were washed into the river from a field of Barley at Shincliffe near Durham. As climate change accelerates such damage from severe weather events will increase.
