Al via al Centro Ricerche #ENEA di #Brasimone il primo dei due corsi, organizzati dall'Unità Tecnica Antartide dell'ENEA, di formazione del personale neofita che parteciperà alla XLI spedizione Italiana in #Antartide. @ItaliAntartide @MASE_IT

🇦🇶Amazing news from the #EU #HorizonEU #Climate funded @OldestIce❗️ 👏👏 🌐The project's international team of scientists has successfully drilled to the bedrock 🧊These ice samples are expected to unveil critical details about our earth's climate history More👇 @EUScienceInnov

Questa carota di ghiaccio è stata prelevata in #Antartide a 2000 metri di profondità: è la quarta fase della campagna #BeyondEPICA - Oldest Ice, in azione a 35 chilometri dalla Stazione italo-francese “Concordia”. Un reperto come questo è in grado di raccontarci il clima terrestre di un milione di anni fa! 11.30 Radio3 Credits: Scoto@PNRA/IPEV

The drilling is advancing at full speed: today, a depth of 2100 m has been reached! The processing is also progressing and the ice cores stack up fast: 37 ice core boxes were moved to Concordia to be stored in the cave. We have a great team! 📸F. Scoto©PNRA/IPEV

2000 meters of depth; no other words are needed today. 📸 Federico Scoto PNRA/IPEV

The 4th Beyond Epica campaign is now underway! Buon lavoro a tutti.

Following the extraction of the first core of the season, 3.59 m of excellent ice quality, the drilling continued, passing the depth of 1900 m and reaching 1947 m today. The team celebrated with a cake freshly baked by Danilo! 📸Federico Scoto PNRA/IPEV

The first trip of the season to LDC has been completed: the road is now open and the camp was found in good conditions! 📸Danilo Collino PNRA/IPEV

Following a week of preparation, the Beyond EPICA ice core processing has started on June 3 @AWI_Media, proceeding from the lowermost part upward, making everyone feel how different the ice from different depths can be. beyondepica.eu/en/campaigns/p… 📸Chiara Venier©CNR-ISP

ℹ️ Join us this Sunday at the #ASSW2024 in Edinburgh for our @EUPolarNet session "European Research Community Priorities for Polar Research: EU-PolarNet’s contribution to the ICARP IV process"! 📅 24 Mar, 10:30 UTC: bit.ly/43bN6nX

👏A great success for Beyond EPICA third drilling campaign! We reached 1836 meters of depth in the Antarctic ice sheet and processed 1367 m of ice cores in just eight weeks of work. 👇Read more about this third drilling season: bit.ly/3SBSKfp ©️PNRA/IPEV

What happens in the poles, doesn't stay in the poles. Ice loss from Greenland and Antarctica has increased fivefold since the 1990s, now accounting for a quarter of sea-level rise. Between 1992 and 2020, the polar ice sheets lost 7560 billion tonnes of ice – equivalent to an ice cube measuring 20 km each side. Melting of the polar ice sheets has caused a 21 mm rise in global sea level since 1992. esa.int/Applications/O…

😍 Ieri #Copernicus #Sentinel3 ci ha regalato questa bella vista dell'#Italia e delle #Alpi quasi senza nuvole 🟢⚪️🔴 🥰 Beautiful and nearly cloudless image of #Italy and the #Alps acquired yesterday, 18 December by #Sentinel3 🇪🇺🛰️

🗻 [2023 retrospective] In October, we successfully extracted from the endangered Colle del Lys glacier in the Alps! 🙌 2 ice cores drilled for #research and 1 preserved for #Heritage. Read more: ice-memory.org/collecting-ice…

🧊 Beyond EPICA returns to Antarctica! 📍 In the remote field camp of Little Dome C, the BEOI international team has started the third drilling campaign. 👇 Read more on the press release: beyondepica.eu/en/news-events… ©️PNRA/IPEV @CNRsocial_ @ENEAOfficial @CaFoscari @UniUtrecht

“This season has been intense but brought amazing results thanks to the team’s gigantic efforts: they worked tirelessly for two months at the Little Dome C camp" @CarloBarbante used this words to describe the successful 22/23 drilling campaign just concluded!

We have completed the last day of drilling operations✨ We can consider the 22/23 drilling season concluded, but there is still a lot of work at LDC: the closure of the camp is always a long process and will take a few days. Which will be the depth reached for this season?😏

👏✨ As the summer season in Antarctica moves to an end, our team is taking full advantage of the available time to continue to drill reaching a new milestone: we have passed 700 meters! Drilling depth: 703.72 m Photo from BE-OI 21/22 archive, ©️PNRA/IPEV
