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 …

Stability of the Antarctic Ice Sheet during the pre-industrial Holocene
The rate and magnitude of the Antarctic Ice Sheet (AIS) contribution to global sea-level rise
beyond 2100 ce remains highly uncertain. Past changes of the AIS, however, offer …

Rapid postglacial rebound amplifies global sea level rise following West Antarctic Ice Sheet collapse
Geodetic, seismic, and geological evidence indicates that West Antarctica is underlain by
low-viscosity shallow mantle. Thus, as marine-based sectors of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet …

Antarctic upper mantle rheology
The Antarctic mantle and lithosphere are known to have large lateral contrasts in seismic
velocity and tectonic history. These contrasts suggest differences in the response timescale …
