Mission

The Antarctic Ice Sheet is vulnerable to the global warming. It is concerned its instability might lead to an acceleration of global sea level rise faster than expected. The ice discharge can trigger a chain reaction of changes in global climate subsystems.

By combining innovative observations, sample analysis, and numerical simulations, our research area aims to examine the cryosphere changes and interaction between the Antarctic Ice Sheet and the global climate system over a time axis spanning from tens of thousands of years or more into the near future.
