Journal Article
Sugden, D., & Jamieson, S. (2018). The pre-glacial landscape of Antarctica. Scottish Geographical Journal, 134(3-4), 203-223. https://doi.org/10.1080/14702541.2018.1535090

The geomorphology of the hidden subglacial landscape of Antarctica is relevant to our understanding of the stability of the Antarctic Ice Sheet and also to that of global interactions between plate tectonics and surface processes. We believe that geo... Read More about The pre-glacial landscape of Antarctica.

Velocity increases at Cook Glacier, East Antarctica linked to ice shelf loss and a subglacial flood event (2018)
Journal Article
Miles, B., Stokes, C., & Jamieson, S. (2018). Velocity increases at Cook Glacier, East Antarctica linked to ice shelf loss and a subglacial flood event. The Cryosphere, 12(10), 3123-3136. https://doi.org/10.5194/tc-12-3123-2018

Cook Glacier drains a large proportion of the Wilkes Subglacial Basin in East Antarctica, a region thought to be vulnerable to marine ice sheet instability and with potential to make a significant contribution to sea level. Despite its importance, th... Read More about Velocity increases at Cook Glacier, East Antarctica linked to ice shelf loss and a subglacial flood event.

Lack of evidence for a substantial sea-level fluctuation within the Last Interglacial (2018)
Journal Article
Barlow, N., McClymont, E., Whitehouse, P., Stokes, C., Jamieson, S., Woodroffe, S., …Sanchez-Montes, M. (2018). Lack of evidence for a substantial sea-level fluctuation within the Last Interglacial. Nature Geoscience, 11, 627-634. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41561-018-0195-4

During the Last Interglacial, global mean sea level reached approximately 6 to 9 m above the present level. This period of high sea level may have been punctuated by a fall of more than 4 m, but a cause for such a widespread sea-level fall has been e...

Bedrock erosion surfaces record former East Antarctic Ice Sheet extent (2018)
Journal Article
Paxman, G., Jamieson, S., Ferraccioli, F., Bentley, M., Ross, N., Armadillo, E., …DeConto, R. (2018). Bedrock erosion surfaces record former East Antarctic Ice Sheet extent. Geophysical Research Letters, 45(9), 4114-4123. https://doi.org/10.1029/2018gl077268

East Antarctica hosts large subglacial basins into which the East Antarctic Ice Sheet (EAIS) likely retreated during past warmer climates. However, the extent of retreat remains poorly constrained, making quantifying past and predicted future contrib...
