PLUMES investigates how sub-glacial melt-water from Greenland and the Antarctic Peninsula influences ocean circulation and ecosystems due to global warming. It focuses on quantifying sediment input from glacial melt-water and modeling its effects on ocean dynamics and biological cycles during de-glaciation events.
PLUMES is motivated by the possibility that sub-glacial melt-water from Greenland and Antarctic Peninsula could affect oceanic circulation in the future due to global warming.
The hypothesis is that the impact of melt-water in the ocean during major events of ice sheet melting is due not only to the salinity-temperature difference with the water column, but also to the changes in physical properties induced by sediment suspension, which affect also the optical properties of seawater and the vert…
