    • Antarctic ice sheet modelling – the needs, challenges, and opportunities for Norwegian Antarctic research 

      Langebroek, Petra Margaretha; Goelzer, Heiko; Petrini, Michele; Chandler, David Matthew (Conference object; Konferansebidrag, 2024-05)
      Antarctic Ice Sheet mass loss accounts for the largest uncertainties in global sea level projections. Antarctic meltwater and iceberg calving, together with changes in sea ice, also impact global ocean circulation, carbon uptake, and ecosystems. To understand, quantify and predict these changes and impacts, we employ climate and ice sheet models. Over the past 5+ years the Norwegian polar research ...

    • CMIP5 model selection for ISMIP6 ice sheet model forcing: Greenland and Antarctica 

      Barthel, Alice; Agosta, Cécile; Little, Christopher M.; Hattermann, Tore; Jourdain, Nicolas; Goelzer, Heiko; Nowicki, Sophie; Seroussi, Helene; Straneo, Fiammetta; Bracegirdle, Thomas J. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-03-06)
      The ice sheet model intercomparison project for CMIP6 (ISMIP6) effort brings together the ice sheet and climate modeling communities to gain understanding of the ice sheet contribution to sea level rise. ISMIP6 conducts stand-alone ice sheet experiments that use space- and time-varying forcing derived from atmosphere–ocean coupled global climate models (AOGCMs) to reflect plausible trajectories for ...

    • Experimental protocol for sea level projections from ISMIP6 stand-alone ice sheet models 

      Nowicki, Sophie; Goelzer, Heiko; Seroussi, Hélène; Payne, Anthony J.; Lipscomb, William H.; Abe-Ouchi, Ayako; Agosta, Cécile; Alexander, Patrick; Asay-Davis, Xylar S; Barthel, Alice; Bracegirdle, Thomas J.; Cullather, Richard; Felikson, Denis; Fettweis, Xavier; Gregory, Jonathan M.; Hattermann, Tore; Jourdain, Nicolas C.; Munneke, Peter Kuipers; Larour, Eric; Little, Christopher M.; Morlighem, Mathieu; Nias, Isabel; Shepherd, Andrew; Simon, Erika; Slater, Donald; Smith, Robin; Straneo, Fiammetta; Trusel, Luke D.; van den Broeke, Michiel R.; Van de Wal, Roderik (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-07-23)
      Projection of the contribution of ice sheets to sea level change as part of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6 (CMIP6) takes the form of simulations from coupled ice sheet–climate models and stand-alone ice sheet models, overseen by the Ice Sheet Model Intercomparison Project for CMIP6 (ISMIP6). This paper describes the experimental setup for process-based sea level change projections ...
