How IoT Sensors Are Tracking Glacier Melt in Real Time
Glaciers are vanishing, but measuring their melt has always been a slow, dangerous, and imprecise science. In this episode, Lucas and Luna dive into how a network of low-cost IoT sensors is changing that—by listening to the ice itself. From the Swiss Alps to the Andes, researchers are deploying rugged sensor nodes that detect sub-glacial water flow, measure ice deformation, and transmit data through the ice via acoustic waves. The result is real-time tracking of glacier mass loss, with implications for hydropower, sea-level rise, and water security. Luna brings up a surprising data point: a…
