The National Science Foundation Division of Polar Programs awarded a $132,303 project grant to Columbia University under the Polar Programs federal grant program (CFDA 47.078). The grant will support collaborative research to improve understanding of past variability in glaciation in the Weddell Embayment and Antarctic Peninsula regions. Eleven investigators from seven U.S. institutions and Argentine collaborators will study sediment cores from the International Ocean Discovery Program as well as on-land outcrops on James Ross Island. The research seeks to understand the phasing of glacier and climate changes between the Northern and Southern Hemispheres during Earth's transition from the warm Pliocene into the Pleistocene ice ages. The team will integrate stratigraphic, geochemical, mineralogical, and ice sheet modeling work to refine knowledge of Antarctic glaciation dynamics and compare records of climate change to understand primary drivers. Results aim to elucidate the Antarctic ice sheet's role in a major global climatic shift.
