Abstract

SeaThe contribution to sea-level rise from shrinking glaciers and ice sheets is increasing. Observed acceleration in the rate of contribution ice loss from Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets is a concern, particularly for West Antarctica where the ice the West Antarctic Ice Sheet (WAIS) where much of the ice sheet is grounded below sea level and the ice sheet’s geometric configuration might be unstable to small perturbations.

ProSPect goal The goal of the ProSPect SciDAC partnership is to address the limitations of the DOE ice sheet and Earth system models (inadequate or missing physics, couplings, model initialization, validation and uncertainty quantification) that prevent accurate sea-level projections.
