04/30/2023 - Many people from the Ice Dynamics group joined this year's EGU General Assembly, with contributions on various aspects of ice modelling in Antarctica and the European Alps.
Many members from the Ice Dynamics group joined this year's EGU General Assembly, which is the biggest European Geoscience conference with ca 18,000 participants. The conference took place from 23-28 April 2023 in a hybrid format, where about 80% of all participants met in Vienna in person.
Our contributions in the form of talks, posters and co-convening sessions focused on various aspects of Ice-sheet and climate interactions; tipping behaviour in the Earth system; and the Southern Ocean connections to Antarctic ice shelves:
- Johannes Feldmann: Hysteresis of idealized marine outlet glaciers under variation of pinning-point buttressing
- Ann Kristin Klose: (Ir)reversibility of future Antarctic mass loss on multi-millennial timescales
- Moritz Kreuzer: Interactive coupling of the Antarctic Ice Sheet and the global ocean
- Lena Nicola: Identifying thresholds of ocean-induced Antarctic ice loss through idealized ice-sheet model simulations
- Simon Schöll: Ice shelf buttressing – a comparison of Antarctic ice shelves in a transient evolution
- Helen Werner: Impact of spatial resolution on large-scale ice cover modeling of mountainous regions
Group members have been involved in organising the following sessions:
- Ice-sheet and climate interactions (Ricarda Winkelmann)
- Earth resilience, tipping points and human-Earth system interactions in the Anthropocene (Ricarda Winkelmann)
- Tipping points, resilience, and stochasticity in the Earth’s climate and ecosystems (Ricarda Winkelmann)
- Under cover: The Southern Ocean’s connection to sea ice and ice shelves (Moritz Kreuzer)
