Climate change is having a rapid and dramatic impact on glaciers and ice sheets.

Join experts in ice, next month, as they explore climate change at the world’s highest, most northern, and most southerly points with talks and a panel discussion.

SWAIS2C = Sensitivity of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet to 2° Celsius of Warming

I asked the SWAIS2C Team what words best describe the SWAIS2C Project.

Here's what they said.

Here is the second highlight I am sharing (of ten, one per day), demonstrating how Nebraska CAS is exciting the curiosity that drives discovery and innovation.

This is about global warming and UNL Geology:

Antarctic Circumpolar Current, world's most powerful and consequential mover of water, has sped up during past warm periods, eating away at polar ice. It's doing it again now, finds new study by LDEO's Gisela Winckler, Jennifer Middleton, and colleagues: lamont.columbia.edu/news/key-ocean…

'As climate changes, there will definitely be costs — in money [such as] infrastructure and human lives as we try to mitigate and adapt to climate change.' NSIDC's Walt Meier along with julienne stroeve talk about climate tipping points with Salon. bit.ly/3vB9Vot

Hear first-hand from Richard Levy and others from the SWAIS2C team about their work to uncover vital climate secrets on Antarctica’s Siple Coast last summer, at this NZ Antarctic Society event next Tues.

Excellent podcast by Veronika Meduna 🌏 exploring our first season on the ice.

Give it a listen!

Setting out to do ambitious things in Antarctica means that sometimes things don't go exactly as planned. Due to technical issues we had to end the 1st SWAIS2C field season early. We are incredibly proud of what we've achieved so far & can’t wait to return to KIS-3 next year. 1/3
