PIK's Ice Dynamics group joined the annual EGU General Assembly, which took place from 14-19 April 2024 in Vienna. It is Europe's largest geoscientific conference with more than 18,000 participants from 116 countries.
Contributions from our group covered various topics, including the (in-)stability of the Antarctic Ice Sheet, its interaction with the Southern Ocean and with the solid Earth, as well as projections of the ice sheet's future sea-level contribution:
- Ricarda Winkelmann: The Tipping Point Modelling Intercomparison Project (TIPMIP)
- Simon Schöll: Effect of initial states on the uncertainty in sea-level rise projections until 2100 and beyond
- Ronja Reese: Do ice-ocean feedbacks influence a regime shift of the Filchner-Ronne ice shelf cavity?
- Lena Nicola: Oceanic gateways to Antarctic grounding lines - Impact of critical access depths on sub-shelf melt
- Moritz Kreuzer: Oceanic gateways in Antarctica - Impact of relative sea-level change on sub-shelf melt
- Ann Kristin Klose: Stability regimes and safe overshoots in West and East Antarctica
- Anna Hoese: Simulating the impact of an AMOC weakening on the Antarctic Ice Sheet using a coupled climate and ice sheet model
- Johannes Feldmann: Simulated influence of ice-shelf calving on the evolution of a potential West Antarctic Ice Sheet instability
- Johanna Beckmann: Deciphering Antarctic Ice Sheet Mass Loss: A Modeling Approach to Distinguish Climate Change from Natural Variability
- Torsten Albrecht: Feedback mechanisms controlling Antarctic glacial cycle dynamics simulated with a coupled ice sheet–solid Earth model
