I examine how large-scale atmospheric circulation over the Southern Ocean, including the coupling of low- and high-pressure systems, helps to drive warm and moist air masses onto the West Antarctic ...

Hi! I am a first-year PhD student in the Ice Sheets and Climate group. Currently, my research focuses on analyzing the precipitation over both the Greenland and Antarctic Ice Sheets in CESM2 ...

Polar ice sheets are critical for climate projections, according to new research published today in the journal Nature ...

Kristin Poinar can speak to the media about climate change, ice sheets and sea level rise. As a researcher, she uses computer modeling to understand how Earth’s ice sheets are shrinking and ...

A forecasting tool reveals which cities will be affected as different portions of the ice sheet melt, say scientists. It looks at the Earth's spin and gravitational effects to predict how water ...

It is a simple calculation: if you know the elevation of the top of the ice sheet and you subtract from that the height of the bedrock - you get a volume: 2.9 million cubic km. The 7.42m figure is ...

A NASA scientist has flown over the Greenland Ice Sheet and captured an unprecedented view of a secret US military base ...
