Podcasts about extreme ice survey

Jason Box accepted the invitation to come Into The Heat with Nick Breeze and here he gives insights into what he saw. At the outset, Jason thought the efforts to survive in these conditions were ‘fighting gravity'. After 2 days, that view changed. Jason also offers great insights into the potential for using data rich landscapes to create digital twins that can help produce greater quality products resilience in anticipating future climate.Download the FREE ebook: https://sustentabilidade.vinhosdoalentejo.pt/uploads/ebook/into-the-heat.pdfProfessor Jason Box is an American glaciologist renowned for his pioneering research on the Greenland ice sheet, having participated in over 30 expeditions since 1994 and leading projects such as the Dark Snow Project and the Extreme Ice Survey to study ice-climate interactions and glacier dynamics. He is a professor at the Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland (GEUS) and is prominently featured in the documentary film Into the Ice, which follows his fieldwork investigating the mass balance and melt processes of Greenland's ice sheet. Box is among the most cited scientists in his field, has contributed to major climate reports including the IPCC, and is recognized for his impactful science communication and advocacy on climate change. Jason has also featured in many Climate.Genn podcast episodes on this channel in the last ten years.

Emmy-winning environmental photographer James Balog shares with Dean Shanahan harrowing stories of mountaineering and the keys to creating new narratives about the environment. Balog is the founder of the Extreme Ice Survey and the Earth Vision Institute, and his latest film, "The Human Element," explores how humanity affects and is affected by earth, air, fire and water. He has spoken at the White House, in the U.S. Congress, at NASA, and is widely known for his popular TED talk "Time-Lapse Proof of Extreme Ice Loss."

Third Pod from the Sun is all about the scientists and the methods behind the science. And who better to talk to about going the extra mile for results than photographer and star of the film Chasing Ice, James Balog? For three decades, James has broken new conceptual and artistic ground on one of the most important issues of our era: human modification of our planet’s natural systems. He and his Extreme Ice Survey team are featured in the 2012 internationally acclaimed, Emmy award-winning documentary Chasing Ice and in the PBS/NOVA special, Extreme Ice. His photos have been extensively published in major magazines, including National Geographic, and exhibited at museums and galleries worldwide. His new film The Human Element, is an innovative—perhaps even revolutionary— look at how humanity interacts with earth, air, fire and water. The film will be released later this year. We were fortunate to be able to sit down with James at AGU’s Fall Meeting in 2018 for a live interview. In this three-part series, we talked about how he became a photographer, some of his most memorable (and dangerous) moments in the field, and how his work and experiences have shaped him into the climate activist he is now.

James Balog's career as a wildlife and environmental photographer has taken him to the extreme ends of the world and himself.

Jeff's previous work has taken him to the Tour de France for a behind-the-scenes documentary, and he has photographed and filmed a number of people including Robin Williams, Jane Goodall, and Nelson Mandela. Jeff's short film, Geocaching: From the Web to the Woods, won Best Short Doc at the Sidewalk Moving Picture Festival and Jeff won the Best Editing award for his film The Strange Case at the Action on Film Festival. Jeff's imagery has exhibited at: The Denver Museum of Nature and Science, The Aspen Institute, The Scripps Institute, The United Nations Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen, and before the U.S Congress on Capitol Hill. In 2007, Jeff got his first taste of the Arctic when as a Stanford student he worked as a videographer with National Geographic photographer James Balog on the initial expedition of The Extreme Ice Survey (or EIS).  That winter, the EIS team scouted and filmed glaciers that now appear in the recent documentary feature film Chasing Ice.  Chasing Ice follows National Geographic photographer James Balog across the Arctic as he deploys time-lapse cameras designed for one purpose: to capture a multi-year record of the world's changing glaciers.

Any photographer will tell you, seeing is believing. But when it comes to climate change, a long slow process that occurs over time, its difficult to capture a single image that demonstrates the sheer magnitude of this global crisis. Even though the most obvious and apparent result of our warming planet is the recession of glacial ice, in some of the most remote places in the world it's hard to truly show how relatively quickly and dramatically that ice is melting. So photographer James Balog came up with a plan to record the progress of climate change by taking a series of pictures from specific locations near glaciers over the course of several months. "We have time-lapse cameras installed permanently at these various glaciers in Greenland, Iceland, Montana, Alaska and soon to be around Mount Everest," Balog said. "And these cameras shoot every half hour around the clock as long as it's daylight and they're looking down on these glaciers that are changing and we make this visual record of the landscape in flux." Called the Extreme Ice Survey these images around the world shot on tripods show the cascade of glacial ice as it forms and then melts. The passage of time is quickly sped up to show the pace of change and its apparent progress. "These cameras shoot all year long and we sometimes don't get back for a year or more to download the images," Balog said. "But once we get the pictures we run them through video post production and turn them into a film clip showing the landscape as it changed over that previous period of time. In these film clips glacial ice melts at a rate consistent with the human perception of time. Weeks and then months literally pass in the blink of an eye. As Balog's cameras watch around the clock his images are making an enduring record of melting glaciers that are amazing and a bit frightening to behold. The images that James Balog and his team continue to capture through the Extreme Ice Survey offer compelling proof of receding glaciers around world. This evidence on a global scale is clear to see and even the most skeptical deniers of climate change may come to believe.
