“For the first time, we were able to measure how quickly the river cut into the ice shelf to form the estuary, which revealed more complex estuary behavior than was previously suggested,” said Michela Savignano, �鶹��Ѱ�����Boulder Geography and CIRES PhD student and lead author of the study.

"They're typically physically accessible, relatively low-cost, low-pressure hub/hangouts, socially welcoming to a diversity of folks, and multigenerational – all key 'third place' attributes,' said Jessica Finlay, an assistant professor of geography at the �鶹��Ѱ�����.

“Covid brought a greater awareness to third places, to how vital they are for everyday health and well-being,” said Jessica Finlay, an assistant professor of geography at the �鶹��Ѱ�����. ”They can be a social glue that connects us, and it’s really important for not just individual health but collective health.”

“This is by far the most horrific flood I have ever seen,” said Alton Byers, a faculty research scientist and an associate of the Institute of Arctic and Alpine Research (INSTAAR) at �鶹��Ѱ�����Boulder.
