Periodic Reporting for period 4 - WACSWAIN (WArm Climate Stability of the West Antarctic ice sheet in the last INterglacial (WACSWAIN))

Prominent papers predict the loss of most of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet (WAIS) by 2500 if CO2 emissions and rising global temperatures are not controlled. Is this realistic? We address this by investigating the last interglacial (LIG, 130,000-115,000 years ago) to assess the...
