The GeoTalks webinar series is suitable for a diverse audience including the public, secondary school pupils and professionals.
Abstract
Antarctica’s floating ice shelves are essential in regulating the flow of ice from Antarctica’s land to the Southern Ocean. Determining how melting ice on the surface of these ice shelves can impact their stability is essential in understanding how they will behave in the future, and how much Antarctica will affect the global sea level.
