Modelling the Antarctic Ice Sheet

, 2015
The Antarctic ice sheet is a major player in the Earth’s climate system and is by far the largest depository of fresh water on the planet. Ice stored in the Antarctic ice sheet (AIS) contains enough water to raise sea level by about 58 m, and ice loss from Antarctica contributed significantly to sea level high stands during past interglacial periods.

Super-long Anabiosis of Ancient Microorganisms in Ice and Terrestrial Models for Development of Methods to Search for Life on Mars, Europa and other Planetary Bodies [PDF]

Successful missions to Mars, Europe and other bodies of the Solar system have created a prerequisite to search for extraterrestrial life. The first attempts of microbial life detection on the Martian surface by the Viking landed missions gave no ...

Future Freshwater Fluxes From the Antarctic Ice Sheet

Geophysical Research Letters
Surface freshening of the Southern Ocean driven by meltwater discharge from the Antarctic ice sheet has been shown to influence global climate dynamics. However, most climate models fail to account for spatially and temporally varying freshwater inputs from ice sheets, introducing significant uncertainty into climate projections.

Antarctic meltwater alters future projections of climate and sea level

Nature Communications
Imperfect understanding of ice sheet-climate interactions poses challenges for projecting the impacts of ice sheet mass loss on future climate and sea level.

Antarctic Ice Sheet tipping in the last 800,000 years warns of future ice loss

Communications Earth & Environment
Ice loss from Antarctica’s vast freshwater reservoir could threaten coastal communities and the global economy if the ice volume decreases by just a few percent.

Quaternary Antarctic Ice Sheet Dynamics

, 2016
The Antarctic Ice Sheet (AIS) plays a major role in the evolution of Quaternary glacial-interglacial cycles and in the global climate system in general. By a variety of ice-ocean and ice-atmosphere feedback processes, changes in the dynamics of the southern ice giant are felt throughout the globe.
