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 …

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 …

A roadmap for Antarctic and Southern Ocean science for the next two decades and beyond
Antarctic and Southern Ocean science is vital to understanding natural variability, the
processes that govern global change and the role of humans in the Earth and climate …

[HTML][HTML] Reconstructions of Antarctic topography since the Eocene–Oligocene boundary
Accurate models of past Antarctic ice sheet behaviour require realistic reconstructions of the
evolution of bedrock topography. However, other than a preliminary attempt to reconstruct …

An ancient river landscape preserved beneath the East Antarctic Ice Sheet
Abstract The East Antarctic Ice Sheet (EAIS) has its origins ca. 34 million years ago. Since
then, the impact of climate change and past fluctuations in the EAIS margin has been …

Revisiting the Middle Eocene Climatic Optimum “Carbon Cycle Conundrum” With New Estimates of Atmospheric pCO2 From Boron Isotopes
Abstract The Middle Eocene Climatic Optimum (MECO) was a gradual warming event and
carbon cycle perturbation that occurred between 40.5 and 40.1 Ma. A number of …

Glacial cirques as palaeoenvironmental indicators: Their potential and limitations
Glacial cirques are armchair-shaped erosional hollows, typified by steep headwalls and,
often, overdeepened floors. They reflect former regions of glacier initiation, and their …

A new volcanic province: an inventory of subglacial volcanoes in West Antarctica
Abstract The West Antarctic Ice Sheet overlies the West Antarctic Rift System about which,
due to the comprehensive ice cover, we have only limited and sporadic knowledge of …

Repeated large-scale retreat and advance of Totten Glacier indicated by inland bed erosion
Climate variations cause ice sheets to retreat and advance, raising or lowering sea level by
metres to decametres. The basic relationship is unambiguous, but the timing, magnitude and …

[HTML][HTML] Alpine topography of the Gamburtsev Subglacial Mountains, Antarctica, mapped from ice sheet surface morphology
Landscapes buried beneath the Antarctic Ice Sheet preserve information about the geologic
and geomorphic evolution of the continent both before and during the wide-scale glaciation …
