A protocol for calculating basal melt rates in the ISMIP6 Antarctic ice sheet projections
. Climate model projections have previously been used to compute ice shelf basal melt rates in ice sheet models, but the strategies employed – e.g., ocean input, parameterization, calibration technique, and corrections – have varied widely and are often ...

Long‐Term Increase in Antarctic Ice Sheet Vulnerability Driven by Bed Topography Evolution
Ice sheet behavior is strongly influenced by the bed topography. However, the effect of the progressive temporal evolution of Antarctica's subglacial landscape on the sensitivity of the Antarctic Ice Sheet (AIS) to climatic and oceanic change has yet to ...

Quantification of the Greenland ice sheet contribution to Last Interglacial sea level rise [PDF]
During the Last Interglacial period (~ 130–115 thousand years ago) the Arctic climate was warmer than today, and global mean sea level was probably more than 6.6 m higher.

Small‐Scale, High‐Frequency Ice, and Ocean Processes in the Amundsen Sea Embayment, West Antarctica
Abstract In proximity of the Antarctic ice sheet, oceanic motions with different spatial structures contribute to the transport of warm water onto the continental shelf, fueling submarine ice‐shelf melting. Emerging evidence suggests that km‐sized ocean submesoscale fronts and eddies significantly impact ice‐ocean interactions on timescale of a few ...

Sovereign Debt in a Warming World: Are Credit Ratings Responding to Climate Risks?
ABSTRACT Investors and policymakers increasingly worry that climate change threatens sovereign debt. While recent studies find a negative effect, they typically estimate models assuming a time‐invariant impact and rely on climate variables endogenous to economic and policy conditions.

Formation of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet [PDF]
A numerical ice-shelf model is employed to observe the inception of the West Antarctic ice sheet (WAIS) from a thin (20 m thick) floating ice cover under the following conditions: (i) a lower sea-level than at present, due to ice-sheet formation in the Northern Hemisphere, (ii) surface and basal temperature and accumulation rates approximately equal to

Abstract This study examined spatiotemporal variations in Beryllium‐7 (7Be) concentrations measured in surface air in high‐latitude regions of the Indian sector of the Southern Ocean, including two Japanese coastal stations. The sites included Syowa Station (69°00′S, 39°35′E) and site S17 (69°02′S, 40°05′E) on the coastal Antarctic ice sheet ...

Abstract A critical gap in East Asian summer monsoon research is the lack of speleothem records from its northeasternmost fringe, hindering tests of orbital‐scale monsoon variability at higher latitudes. Our new records from the Russian Far East, spanning 9–5 ka BP, fill this spatial gap and reveal a synchronous δ18O negative excursion and intensified ...

Uncertainties in the modelled CO2 threshold for Antarctic glaciation [PDF]
A frequently cited atmospheric CO2 threshold for the onset of Antarctic glaciation of ∼780 ppmv is based on the study of DeConto and Pollard (2003) using an ice sheet model and the GENESIS climate model.

We conducted GPS observations on the Antarctic ice sheet in the vicinity of Syowa Station, during wintering of the 48th Japanese Antarctic Research Expedition (JARE-48). Continuous GPS data for about one year was obtained for the first time.
