Antarctic glacio-eustatic contributions to late Miocene Mediterranean desiccation and reflooding
Abstract The Messinian Salinity Crisis (MSC) was a marked late Neogene oceanographic
event during which the Mediterranean Sea evaporated. Its causes remain unresolved, with …

Minimal East Antarctic Ice Sheet retreat onto land during the past eight million years
Abstract The East Antarctic Ice Sheet (EAIS) is the largest potential contributor to sea-level
rise. However, efforts to predict the future evolution of the EAIS are hindered by uncertainty …
