Main publication details
MARC recordThe Antarctic ice sheet / David G. Vaughan.
| Title: | The Antarctic ice sheet / David G. Vaughan. |
| Author(s): | Vaughan, David G. |
| Date: | 2006. |
| Publisher: | Oxford: Blackwell |
| In: | Glacier science and environmental change. (2006.), |
| Abstract: | Discusses imperative of ice-sheet research given possible human impact of deglaciation, and examines: measurement of change in Antarctic ice sheet; rapid response to contemporary climate change, including warming on Antarctic Peninsula and potential increase in Antarctic snowfall; long-term responses to Holocene climate change, including continuing Holocene retreat in West Antarctica and ice-stream instability; changes in Amundsen Sea sector; and difficulty in predicting future of great ice sheets. |
