[CRYOLIST] ABUMIP: Antarctic Buttressing MIP

Dear colleagues,

We are delighted to announce the launch of the new ABUMIP-Antarctica that was designed by Franck Pattyn and Nicholas Golledge and has been endorsed as part of ISMIP6.

This modeling intercomparison project aims at better understanding the role of ice shelves in the Antarctic Ice Sheet. More information is available on the ISMIP6 website: http://www.climate-cryosphere.org/wiki/index.php?title=ABUMIP-Antarctica.

The deadline for submitting your results is May, 1st 2018.

If you are interested and are not yet part of the ISMIP6 mailing list, you can subscribe by emailing the CliC project office (info@climate-cryosphere.org), and ask to be included in the ISMIP6 mailing list. 

For questions about ABUMIP, please contact Frank Pattyn (fpattyn@ulb.ac.be) and Nicholas Golledge (Nicholas.Golledge@vuw.ac.nz).

Best regards,
Helene Seroussi on behalf of Frank Pattyn, Nicholas Golledge and the ISMIP6 committee
