by Pierre-Marie Lefeuvre, Department of Geosciences, University of Oslo,, Oslo, Norway
Composite image of Engabreen, a glacier outlet of the Svartisen ice cap. It used to be the lowest glaciers in Europe with its tongue reaching the lake Engabrevatne at approximately 8 m above sea level in 1999. The red dot at the center-right of the image is Alexandra Messerli that is installing a time-lapse camera to monitor glacier flow above the Svartisen Subglacial Laboratory located 200 m below the ice surface.
