Deep water inflow slowed offshore expansion of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet at the Eocene-Oligocene transition

The growth of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet was inhibited by incursions of relatively warm circumpolar deep water as early as the Eocene-Oligocene transition, according to seismic imaging of a sediment drift on the shelf of the Amundsen Sea Embayment.
