Some exciting weather in #Greenland as we set off on fieldwork -> a typical pattern: low pressure in SE brings large amount of snow + rain, but also warmer temperatures, wind + melt. On other side of ice sheet there is a föhn wind driving melt + ice loss. Figs @polarportal.bsky.social #FieldDiary25
