Abstract:
Because ice shelves respond to climatic forcing over a range of time
scales, from years to millennia, an understanding of their long-term
history is critically needed for predicting their future evolution. We
present the first detailed reconstruction of the Larsen C Ice Shelf (LCIS),
eastern Antarctic Peninsula (AP), based on data from sediment cores
