Rainey Aberle

Rainey fostered her love for glaciology during her undergraduate research experience at Mount Rainier working with Dr. Claire Todd. Her research interests include glacier and snow cover dynamics, remote sensing, and water resources. She recently finished her MS Geophysics work assessing controls on ice dynamics at Crane Glacier, Antarctic Peninsula using a numerical ice flow model. Her PhD work with Prof. Ellyn Enderlin focused on image processing techniques for analyzing iceberg size distributions in Antarctica, snow cover in mountainous regions, and seasonal trends in mass and stress balance at Wolverine Glacier, Alaska.
