Response of the East Antarctic Ice Sheet to past and future climate change
Abstract The East Antarctic Ice Sheet contains the vast majority of Earth's glacier ice (about
52 metres sea-level equivalent), but is often viewed as less vulnerable to global warming …

The sensitivity of the Antarctic ice sheet to a changing climate: Past, present, and future
Abstract The Antarctic Ice Sheet (AIS) is out of equilibrium with the current anthropogenic‐
enhanced climate forcing. Paleoenvironmental records and ice sheet models reveal that the …

Exceeding 1.5 C global warming could trigger multiple climate tipping points
Climate tipping points occur when change in a part of the climate system becomes self-
perpetuating beyond a warming threshold, leading to substantial Earth system impacts …

Changing state of the climate system
2 Chapter 2 assesses observed large-scale changes in climate system drivers, key climate
indicators and 3 principal modes of variability. Chapter 3 considers model performance and …

An ancient river landscape preserved beneath the East Antarctic Ice Sheet
Abstract The East Antarctic Ice Sheet (EAIS) has its origins ca. 34 million years ago. Since
then, the impact of climate change and past fluctuations in the EAIS margin has been …

Ice loss from the East Antarctic Ice Sheet during late Pleistocene interglacials
Understanding ice sheet behaviour in the geological past is essential for evaluating the role
of the cryosphere in the climate system and for projecting rates and magnitudes of sea level …

Climate evolution through the onset and intensification of Northern Hemisphere Glaciation
Abstract The Pliocene Epoch (∼ 5.3–2.6 million years ago, Ma) was characterized by a
warmer than present climate with smaller Northern Hemisphere ice sheets, and offers an …

A high‐end estimate of sea level rise for practitioners
RSW van de Wal, RJ Nicholls, D Behar… - Earth's …, 2022 - Wiley Online Library
Sea level rise (SLR) is a long‐lasting consequence of climate change because global
anthropogenic warming takes centuries to millennia to equilibrate for the deep ocean and …
