BPCRC Winter Seminar: Antarctic Ice Sheet Evolution and the Earth Climate

Dr. Flavio Justino
February 4, 2015
All Day
Room 177 Scott Hall, 1090 Carmack Road

Dr. Flavio Justino - Universidade Federal de Viçosa

This seminar will focus on climate response to distinct configurations of the Antarctic Ice Sheet based upon modeling experiments simulating the mid-Miocene interval (23-17Ma). Moreover, it will address the large-scale climate anomalies induced by the retreat of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet (WAIS). Generic sensitivity tests of the global response to a smaller WAIS, as presented here, have relevance to both past interglacials when WAIS retreated and possibly to the future when WAIS will be affected by anthropogenic forcing.

EVERYONE IS WELCOME TO ATTEND
