The INCISED project aims to provide direct evidence of past collapses of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet by retrieving subglacial bedrock samples. This data will enhance ice sheet models to better predict future sea level rise by quantifying historical ice levels during warm periods.
The West Antarctic Ice Sheet (WAIS) stores a substantial volume of freshwater on land.
It is thought to be inherently unstable and so projections of future sea level rise require robust numerical ice sheet models, fully calibrated against geological data.
The WAIS is widely believed to have collapsed in past warm interglacial periods, raising sea level by up to 3.3m, but perhaps surprisingly we do not yet have direct evidence of collapse from Antarctica that can be securely dated.
