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 …

The Paris Climate Agreement and future sea-level rise from Antarctica
Abstract The Paris Agreement aims to limit global mean warming in the twenty-first century to
less than 2 degrees Celsius above preindustrial levels, and to promote further efforts to limit …

Understanding of contemporary regional sea‐level change and the implications for the future
Global sea level provides an important indicator of the state of the warming climate, but
changes in regional sea level are most relevant for coastal communities around the world …

Solid Earth change and the evolution of the Antarctic Ice Sheet
Recent studies suggest that Antarctica has the potential to contribute up to~ 15 m of sea-
level rise over the next few centuries. The evolution of the Antarctic Ice Sheet is driven by a …

Rapid postglacial rebound amplifies global sea level rise following West Antarctic Ice Sheet collapse
Geodetic, seismic, and geological evidence indicates that West Antarctica is underlain by
low-viscosity shallow mantle. Thus, as marine-based sectors of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet …

The influence of realistic 3D mantle viscosity on Antarctica's contribution to future global sea levels
The response of the Antarctic Ice Sheet (AIS) to climate change is the largest uncertainty in
projecting future sea level. The impact of three-dimensional (3D) Earth structure on the AIS …

Inference of the timescale‐dependent apparent viscosity structure in the upper mantle beneath Greenland
Contemporary crustal uplift and relative sea level (RSL) change in Greenland is caused by
the response of the solid Earth to ongoing and historical ice mass change. Glacial isostatic …

Retreat of the Antarctic Ice Sheet during the Last Interglaciation and implications for future change
Abstract The Antarctic Ice Sheet (AIS) response to past warming consistent with the 1.5–2° C
“safe limit” of the United Nations Paris Agreement is currently not well known. Empirical …
