Response of the East Antarctic Ice Sheet to past and future climate change
Abstract The East Antarctic Ice Sheet contains the vast majority of Earth's glacier ice (about
52 metres sea-level equivalent), but is often viewed as less vulnerable to global warming …

The sensitivity of the Antarctic ice sheet to a changing climate: Past, present, and future
Abstract The Antarctic Ice Sheet (AIS) is out of equilibrium with the current anthropogenic‐
enhanced climate forcing. Paleoenvironmental records and ice sheet models reveal that the …

Rapid glaciation and a two-step sea level plunge into the Last Glacial Maximum
Abstract The approximately 10,000-year-long Last Glacial Maximum, before the termination
of the last ice age, was the coldest period in Earth's recent climate history. Relative to the …

A reconciled solution of Meltwater Pulse 1A sources using sea-level fingerprinting
The most rapid global sea-level rise event of the last deglaciation, Meltwater Pulse 1A (MWP-
1A), occurred∼ 14,650 years ago. Considerable uncertainty regarding the sources of …

Extensive retreat and re-advance of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet during the Holocene
To predict the future contributions of the Antarctic ice sheets to sea-level rise, numerical
models use reconstructions of past ice-sheet retreat after the Last Glacial Maximum to tune …

Ross Ice Shelf response to climate driven by the tectonic imprint on seafloor bathymetry
Ocean melting has thinned Antarctica's ice shelves at an increasing rate over the past two
decades, leading to loss of grounded ice. The Ross Ice Shelf is currently close to steady …

Drivers of Holocene sea-level change in the Caribbean
We present a Holocene relative sea-level (RSL) database for the Caribbean region (5° N to
25° N and 55° W to 90° W) that consists of 499 sea-level index points and 238 limiting dates …

Stability of the Antarctic Ice Sheet during the pre-industrial Holocene
The rate and magnitude of the Antarctic Ice Sheet (AIS) contribution to global sea-level rise
beyond 2100 ce remains highly uncertain. Past changes of the AIS, however, offer …
