Sarenne glacier-climate warming-Alps - 03 Sep 2023

The International Glaciological group in front of the DMC Grandes Rousses cabins at Alpe d'Huez when they learn that their access has been refused. On Saturday, September 2, 2023, the International Glaciological Society, Western Alps section, planned a "funeral march" to the Sarenne glacier, in order to organize a ceremony for the glacier's death. Scientists and glaciologists wanted to alert public opinion to the of this glacier, accelerated by the effects of global warming. Purpose the municipality of Alpe d'Huez refused to allow access to the ski lifts leading to the remains of the glacier. So the group places symbolically at the Col de Sarenne to bid farewell to this glacier and thus to a series of reference measurements that are disappearing. Since 1947, the seasonal and annual mass scales of the Sarennes glacier (Grande Rousse, Isere) have been measured every year, making it one of the longest mass balance measurement series in the Alps and the world. As a result of global warming, the Sarennes glacier has been steadily shrinking and has largely in recent years. Today, in 2023, all that remains is a few patches of dead ice covered in debris, melting in place. France, L'Alpe de Huez, September 02, 2023.
