Yes, I'm doing a show in LA on Sunday January 7. It's a bit last-minute. Come and say hi! https://www.flapperscomedy.com/shows/...

Huge thanks to Sammie for sharing her equations. Check out her work at Northumbria University: https://www.northumbria.ac.uk/about-u...

"A Mathematical Model of Melt Lake Development on an Ice Shelf" https://agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.c...

Sammie's very good MATLAB code! https://researchdata.reading.ac.uk/121/

Ice shelf satellite images thanks to NASA/Goddard Space Flight Center Scientific Visualization Studio. https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/2421/

Thanks to the Reading Biscuit Factory for letting us film in their lovely cafe. https://www.readingbiscuitfactory.co.uk/

I went to Antarctica with Hurtigruten. https://www.hurtigruten.com/en-us/exp...

Huge thanks to my Patreon supporters. They bought me that coffee I was drinking. Sammie only wanted a glass of ice water. I swear I offered her other beverages but no, she's too on-brand for that.   / standupmaths
