Abstract The East Antarctic Ice Sheet contains the vast majority of Earth's glacier ice (about
52 metres sea-level equivalent), but is often viewed as less vulnerable to global warming …

Glaciations have occurred episodically at different time intervals and for different durations in
Earth's history. Ice covers have formed in a wide range of plate tectonic and structural …

The cosmic ray flux increases at higher altitude as air pressure and the shielding effect of the
atmosphere decrease. Altitude‐dependent scaling factors are required to compensate for …

This important volume provides an original synthesis and novel overview of Antarctic fish
biology, detailing the evolution of these fish in some of the most unusual and extreme …

The equator to high southern latitude sea surface and vertical temperature gradients are
reconstructed from oxygen isotope values of planktonic and benthic foraminifers for the …

The mid-Piacenzian is known as a period of relative warmth when compared to the present
day. A comprehensive understanding of conditions during the Piacenzian serves as both a …

Detailed investigations of high latitude sequences recently collected by the Ocean Drilling
Program (ODP) indicate that periods of rapid climate change often culminated in brief …

Abstract The Antarctic Ice Sheet (AIS) is out of equilibrium with the current anthropogenic‐
enhanced climate forcing. Paleoenvironmental records and ice sheet models reveal that the …

The influence of Antarctica and the Southern Ocean on Late Pliocene global climate
reconstructions has remained ambiguous due to a lack of well-dated Antarctic-proximal …

A major obstacle in understanding the evolution of Cenozoic climate has been the lack of
well dated terrestrial evidence from high-latitude, glaciated regions. Here, we report the …
