Mass loss from the Amundsen Sea sector of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet has increased in
recent decades, suggestive of sustained ocean forcing or an ongoing, possibly unstable …

Mass loss from the Antarctic Ice Sheet is driven by changes at the marine margins. In the
Amundsen Sea, thinning of the ice shelves has allowed the outlet glaciers to accelerate and …

Geochemical provenance studies of glacial-marine sediments provide a powerful approach
to describe subglacial geology, sediment transport pathways, and past ice sheet dynamics …

Thwaites Glacier is the most rapidly changing outlet of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet and adds
large uncertainty to 21st century sea-level rise predictions. Here, we present the first direct …

Abstract Changes in ice discharge from Antarctica constitute the largest uncertainty in future
sea-level projections, mainly because of the unknown response of its marine basins. Most of …

A 1/12° ocean model configuration of the Amundsen Sea sector is developed to better
understand the circulation induced by ice‐shelf melt and the impacts on the surrounding …

This article reviews recent scientific progress, relating to four major systems that could
exhibit threshold behaviour: ice sheets, the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation …

Widespread ice shelf thinning has been recorded in the Amundsen Sea in recent decades,
driven by basal melting and intrusions of relatively warm Circumpolar Deep Water (CDW) …

The geometry of the sea floor immediately beyond Antarctica's marine-terminating glaciers is
a fundamental control on warm-water routing, but it also describes former topographic …

The changing supply of warm Circumpolar Deep Water (CDW) to the West Antarctic
continental shelf is responsible for the basal melting and thinning of the West Antarctic ice …
