Ice-sheet dynamics during late Cenozoic super-warm periods in the Amundsen Sea sector of West Antarctica recorded by variations in ice-rafted debris deposition
The West Antarctic Ice Sheet (WAIS) is highly susceptible to melting and eventually collapsing during interglacial periods and since it is mainly based below sea level, external influences such as the ‘Marine Ice Sheet Instability (MISI)’ have a significant impact on its stability. Under currently r...
