Subglacial environments provide conditions suitable for the microbial production of methane, an important greenhouse gas, which can be released from beneath the ice as a…
In polar and alpine regions worldwide, glacier retreat leads to the creation of new lakes in the newly-deglaciated proglacial terrain. However, little is known about…
Glacial meltwater drains into proglacial rivers where it interacts with the surrounding landscape, collecting microbial cells as it travels downstream. Characterizing the composition of the…
We are happy to announce Philip Pika is joining our team to work on the project MARCH4G as a postdoctoral research assistant. Philip did his…
This summer we travelled to Greenland to finish the first phase of the MARCH4G project. We returned to Upernavik in NW Greenland to visit sites…

In a new hypothesis paper published in Frontiers in Plant Science Jakub Žárský and his coauthors use current glacial ecology knowledge to tackle the puzzle…
In a new paper published in Global Biogeochemical Cycles and led by Petra Vinšová, we reveal the biogeochemical legacy of subglacial sediments exposed by retreating…
Tyler Kohler, a former member of CryoEco and currently a Postdoc at EPFL in Switzerland, has recently been awarded a grant from the Primus Research…
After the 2020 covid break, we travelled to Greenland again in 2021 to conduct field work for two projects: GrISMEME and MARCH4G. In July, the…
