Our second video explains the science and relevance of studying Antarctic southern ocean tipping points:  1. Antarctica is currently protected from the warmest waters of the Southern Ocean by a shield of…

To help improve projections of future ice sheet melting and sea level rise, we sometimes study past warm periods. One of these past warm periods is the last interglacial (LIG: ∼130…

About half of the current sea-level rise stems from land ice - glaciers and the Antarctic and Greenland ice sheets - with most of the rest originating in warming of…

The EGU General Assembly is Europe’s largest annual conference on geosciences.   This year all scientific sessions will be in a virtual PICO format, meaning that there will be an overview…

The new "Mathematics on Ice" forum aims to provide a virtual room for discussion on mathematical aspects of ice dynamics. Every month, there will be a couple of short talks…

In November 2020 took place a new beginner Elmer/Ice course. Due to the covid crisis, the course was held online during two weeks, in place of the previous 2 or…

As Antarctica’s mass loss increases, the threat of crossing tipping points both in the ice sheet and the surrounding Southern Ocean is increasing. These tipping points are central to the research…
