Feeling philosophical on a Friday? Part review, part commentary - my first paper in a LONG while asking what happens to glaciers as they retreat, how we talk about it, and why we care. Out now in @igsoc.bsky.social special collection on Vanishing Glaciers.

Annals of Glaciology 64(92) “Ice, Snow and Water in a Warming World” is now available and contains 25 diverse papers. The issue was led by ACEs Tómas Jóhannesson and Hester Jiskoot, and supported by nine Scientific Editors. Several of the papers found in this issue were first presented at the International Symposium “Cryosphere 2022” on the same theme, in Reykjavík, Iceland. The cover image "Glacier Tunnel”, oil on linen, was painted by visual artist Klara Maisch inside an ice cave in the Eastern Alaska Range. This third and final issue of 2023 is also the end of an era: Annals of Glaciology has been issued in print since 1980, and this is the final issue for which a paper copy will be issued. From now on we will have online-only volumes, still grouped in themes as online “Collections”. Read more about this transition to online-only and this final print AOG issue in the PREFACE here: https://www.cambridge.org/core/services/aop-cambridge-core/content/view/239B7DB18D20590A0112D1AECB4EB5EB/S0260305524000442a.pdf/aog-volume-64-issue-92-cover-and-front-matter.pdf
