Sea-level rise is a problem that affects regions worldwide - from the marshlands of the San Francisco Bay Area to the farmlands in coastal Bangladesh. Three-dimensional ice sheet models are the principle tools to evaluate mass loss from ice sheets that contribute to sea-level ri…

I present research that improves our understanding of the glacial history of the Antarctic Ice Sheet and advances the method of in situ 14C exposure dating. Firstly, I present research investigating deglaciation in the Weddell Sea Embayment (WSE) sector of the Antarctic Ice Shee…

Glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA) is the ongoing response of the viscoelastic solid Earth, oceans and the gravitational field to the previous burden of the ice loads. The Earth’s surface was once covered with massive ice sheets, and melting of these ice sheets is still reshapin…
