The Effect of Potential Future Climate Change on the Marine Methane Hydrate Stability Zone
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The marine gas hydrate stability zone (GHSZ) is sensitive to temperature changes at the seafloor, which likely affected the GHSZ in the past and may do so in the future in response to anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions. ...
Surface Melting over Ice Shelves and Ice Sheets as Assessed from Modeled Surface Air Temperatures
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Summer surface melting plays an important role in the evolution of ice shelves and their progenitor ice sheets. To explore the magnitude of surface melt occurring over modern ice shelves and ice sheets in a climate scenario ...
Implementation and Initial Evaluation of the Glimmer Community Ice Sheet Model in the Community Earth System Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he Glimmer Community Ice Sheet Model (Glimmer-CISM) has been implemented in the Community Earth System Model (CESM). Glimmer-CISM is forced by a surface mass balance (SMB) computed in multiple elevation classes in the CESM ...
