Read the latest ACEAS news as we seek to uncover the mysteries of East Antarctica and the Southern Ocean, and better understand emerging climate risks.
International collaborative science at the edge of Antarctica By Joline Lalime, Sea2SchoolAu and Dr Linda Armbrecht, ACEAS/IMAS (University of Tasmania) Research nearby the Cook Ice Shelf is only possible through strong international collaboration. This remote and poorly studied region of East Antarctica demands a wide range of expertise, technologies, and perspectives – and this voyage […]
New model correction improves predictions of Antarctic ice shelf melt Accurately predicting how Antarctic ice shelves melt is critical for understanding future sea-level rise and global climate change. A recent study led by ACEAS PhD researcher Claire Yung from the Australian National University introduces a correction to ocean models that could significantly improve these predictions. […]
The longest story ever pulled from the seafloor on the RV Investigator By Dr Linda Armbrecht, Australian Centre for Excellence in Antarctic Science/Institute for Marine and Antarctic Studies (University of Tasmania) and Joline Lalime, Sea2SchoolAU Sediment lying beneath the ocean floor acts like a natural archive. Layer by layer, fine grains and pieces of rock […]
