I am an assistant professor in the field of glaciology and polar meteorology at the Institute for Marine and Atmospheric research Utrecht (IMAU), part of Utrecht University, The Netherlands. I'm active on Mastodon.
We study firn because it contains clues about past climate, because it modifies meltwater runoff into the ocean, and because it can help us to measure ice-sheet mass change from space using satellites. After a lot of hard work, an overview paper on firn is out!
Using a spectral unmixing technique, we map daily fractions of blue-ice area over Antarctica for the 22-year period since 2000, using the full available MODIS archive. This FABIAN product is published in Remote Sensing of Environment.
At the moment, my H-index is 35. In Web of Science, you can find all my publications and their citation statistics by using the search string "munneke p*" in the author field.
