Glacial Climate Intervention: A Research Vision
Glaciological research should be expanded to include the science of ice-sheet preservation to determine if engineered interventions applied to critical ice-sheet regions may reduce sea-level rise. This document represents a white paper that articulates a perspective on future research directions based on discussions of glacial climate intervention held at workshops at the University of Chicago (2–3 October 2023) and Stanford University (8–9 December 2023), and at an American Geophysical Union town hall (12 December 2023). Opinions expressed here are those of the authors only and do not necessarily reflect opinions held by all attendees of the workshops and town hall.
