The Cryosphere; Our frozen world in the face of climate change
In this episode of The SAGES Climate Science Podcast, we dive into the cryosphere - the frozen regions of Earth - and explore how they’re being transformed by climate change. Our expert guests include Dr. TJ Young and Emma Cameron from the University of St Andrews, Dr. Ailsa Guild from the University of Dundee, and PhD student Emma Cameron from the University of St Andrews. They’ll take us on a journey from Greenland’s glaciers to Antarctica’s "Doomsday Glacier," sharing insights from their cutting-edge research.
We’ll discuss the crucial role the cryosphere plays in regulating the global climate, how its melting is driving sea level rise, and why studying past frozen environments is key to predicting future changes. We’ll also cover the potential impacts on regions like Scotland and how communities are preparing for the future, along with the growing popularity of geotourism in glacial landscapes.
Whether you're captivated by the beauty of icy environments or concerned about climate change, this episode offers a deep dive into the future of our frozen world.
