We are looking for ideas for peer-reviewed sessions for @esa's next Living Planet Symposium: lps25.esa.int If you don't know what LPS is➡️held every 3 years (because it's a lot of work to put together😅) ESA’s Living Planet Symposia are among the world’s premier events on Earth observation. The 2025 edition will be in Vienna. #LPS25

The best news for a Monday morning: @esa_eo next Living Planet Symposium will take place a year from now! When: 23-27 June 2025 Where: Austria Centre, Vienna The focus will be on how to transition from observation to climate action and sustainability for Earth. Don't miss it!

Still not sure what sessions to follow at #EGU24? Here's some inspiration if you are interested in learning a bit more about our #EarthObservation missions: earth.esa.int/eogateway/news… #ESAatEGU 📸Credits: @EuroGeosciences

Goodbyes are never easy 🥹 Our Cluster mission, which has spent 24 years revealing the secrets of Earth’s magnetic environment, is coming to an end. Learn more about this mission and wave a final farewell 👋👇











🤩 CryoSat lives! 🤩 ⛽️ A fuel leak threatened to bring @esa's ice mission to a premature end 🕹️ At @esaoperations yesterday, we swapped to its back-up propulsion system 🥵 The back-up thrusters had never been used before, in over 13 years in space... 🥳 ...and it was a success! CryoSat flies on, to continue its unparalleled record of global ice for a good while yet 👉esa.int/Enabling_Suppo…

🤩 Thank you so much to all these fantastic people who joined us in ESRIN this week to discuss the next improvements to CryoTEMPO - an incredible 13+ year record of Earth's ice and water - with more soon to come 🤩




Thank you to our colleagues at @esaclimate who invited some of our students to attend their recent CCI Colocation meeting. We are really grateful for these opportunities which provide excellent career development and networking

Today, I am excited to open together with @KarenStG the first ever @esa - @nasa MAGIC Science and Applications Workshop in Assisi. Mass Change and Geosciences International Constellation (MAGIC) is the ESA-NASA concept for collaboration on a future gravity constellation.


📽️ As the #ArcticCircleAssembly takes place this week, this video shows the stark sea ice losses in the region 🥵 The Arctic is experiencing disproportionately higher temperature increases compared to the rest of the planet 🛰️ Satellites such as #CryoSat provide crucial insights into this "Arctic amplification" 🔗esa.int/Applications/O…


🌍🚀 I've started my Climate Change Initiative Fellowship with @esaclimate @ESA_EO @AWI. Looking forward to unraveling the thermodynamic and dynamic sea ice thickness change in long-term satellite observations @esa and climate models. More details linkedin.com/feed/update/ur…
