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 …

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 …
