Genomic evidence for West Antarctic ice sheet collapse during the last interglacial
The marine-based West Antarctic Ice Sheet (WAIS) is considered vulnerable to irreversible
collapse under future climate trajectories, and its tip** point may lie within the mitigated …

Atmospheric and oceanic circulation altered by global mean sea-level rise
Over recent decades, the rate of global mean sea-level rise has increased, although the
magnitude—tens of centimetres—remains small from a geological perspective. Such a …

Constraining the contribution of the Antarctic Ice Sheet to Last Interglacial sea level
Polar temperatures during the Last Interglacial [LIG;~ 129 to 116 thousand years (ka)] were
warmer than today, making this time period an important testing ground to better understand …

[HTML][HTML] The stability of present-day Antarctic grounding lines–Part 1: No indication of marine ice sheet instability in the current geometry
Theoretical and numerical work has shown that under certain circumstances grounding lines
of marine-type ice sheets can enter phases of irreversible advance and retreat driven by the …

Recent sedimentology at the grounding zone of the Kamb Ice stream, West Antarctica and implications for ice shelf extent
Sediment accumulating beneath floating ice contains a record of ice dynamics in polar
regions where in situ observations are rare. In 2019 a hole was melted through a 590m-thick …

Multiple episodes of ice loss from the Wilkes Subglacial Basin during the Last Interglacial
Abstract The Last Interglacial (LIG: 130,000–115,000 years ago) was a period of warmer
global mean temperatures and higher and more variable sea levels than the Holocene …

The Ronne Ice Shelf survived the last interglacial
The fate of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet (WAIS) is the largest cause of uncertainty in long-
term sea-level projections. In the last interglacial (LIG) around 125,000 years ago, data …

Ocean cavity regime shift reversed West Antarctic grounding line retreat in the late Holocene
Recent geologic and modeled evidence suggests that the grounding line of the Siple Coast
of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet (WAIS) retreated hundreds of kilometers beyond its present …
