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 …

Understanding the causes of recent climatic trends and variability in the high-latitude
Southern Hemisphere is hampered by a short instrumental record. Here, we analyse recent …

Despite considerable advances in process understanding, numerical modeling, and the
observational record of ice sheet contributions to global mean sea-level rise (SLR) since the …

Ice flow models of the Antarctic ice sheet are commonly used to simulate its future evolution
in response to different climate scenarios and inform on the mass loss that would contribute …

Government policies currently commit us to surface warming of three to four degrees Celsius
above pre-industrial levels by 2100, which will lead to enhanced ice-sheet melt. Ice-sheet …

Predictions for sea-level rise this century due to melt from Antarctica range from zero to more
than one metre. The highest predictions are driven by the controversial marine ice-cliff …

Polar temperatures over the last several million years have, at times, been slightly warmer
than today, yet global mean sea level has been 6–9 metres higher as recently as the Last …

Mechanisms such as ice‐shelf hydrofracturing and ice‐cliff collapse may rapidly increase
discharge from marine‐based ice sheets. Here, we link a probabilistic framework for sea …

Records of Alpine microseismicity are a powerful tool to study landscape-shaping processes
and warn against hazardous mass movements. Unfortunately, seismic sensor coverage in …

The future surface mass balance (SMB) will influence the ice dynamics and the contribution
of the Antarctic ice sheet (AIS) to the sea-level rise. Most of recent Antarctic SMB projections …
