IMG_a9932_dye tracing.jpg PHD scientist Ian Bartholomew using dye tracing techniques as part of a study to measure the speed of the Russell 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

366W2845.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. Here Dr Jeff Warburton from Durham University inspects a device for measuring the solar radiation falling on the bog.

366W2866.jpg A research project by Dr Jeff Warburton of Durham University measuring wind erosion on the upland blanket peat bog at Moor House Upper Teesdale. As global warming leads to an increase in stormy weather and associated high winds it is expected that wind erosion of the peat bog will increase

366W2918.jpg Dr Jeff Warburton of Durham University removed a bed load logger from a river in Moor House National Nature Reserve in Upper Teesdale Cumbria UK. This experiment measures the movement of bed load materials over time. Most movement and erosion occurs during peak flows following wet weather. An increase in stormy weather due to global warming will lead to more frequent erosion events.
