Congratulations to Morag Fotheringham who successfully defended her PhD thesis: “Glacier and Ice Cap Mass Balance from CryoSat-2 Swath Altimetry: Global Estimates and Arctic Process Insights.”

The panel of examiners commended the novel data presented and the student’s significant knowledge of satellite analysis of glacier and ice cap mass balance.

A special thank you note goes out to Morag’s supervisory team Dr Noel Gourmelen (Edinburgh), Dr Michael Tamados (UCL), Prof Eleanor Frajka-Williams (NOC), Dr Gary Watmough (Edinburgh) and both examiners, Dr Daniel Goldberg (Edinburgh) and Prof Anna Hogg (Leeds).
