The volume of the Antarctic continental ice sheet(s) varied substantially during the Oligocene and Miocene (∼34–5 Ma) from smaller to substantially larger than today, both on million-year and on orbital timescales. However, reproduction through physical modeling of a dynamic response of the ice shee...
