Title: Slip Slidin’ Away: Glaciers and Ice Sheets in a warming climate
Abstract:
In the next century sea level will be mainly affected by the health and volume of the Polar ice sheets in Antarctica and Greenland. In this talk, I will introduce you to the glacier hydrologic system and to one glacier in particular—Thwaites Glacier, Antarctica—and its potential to significantly raise global sea level in the coming years. As a geophysicist, I will focus on the observations and measurements, but will also talk about some of numerical modeling issues.
