Ice sheet-sea level-solid earth interactions
|
|
Welcome !I am a professor in the Earth and Planetary Sciences Department at McGill University and a Canada Research Chair in the Geodynamics of Ice Sheet - Sea Level Interactions. I did my PhD at Harvard University in Earth and Planetary Sciences, and post doctoral work at the Courant Institute of Mathematical Science at NYU. I work at the intersection between solid Earth geophysics and climate science. My research centers around the interactions between ice sheets, sea level and the solid Earth, and the response of these systems to past, present and future climate changes. I am also a member of the McGill Space Institute.

I am delighted and deeply honoured to have been given this year's AGU Cryosphere Early Career Award! The award is given to an 'outstanding junior scientist within 10 years of their Ph.D. for a significant contribution to cryospheric science and technology', and generously sponsored by the National Snow and Ice Data Center (NSIDC). The award will be presented at the American Geophysical Union's Fall Meeting in December and I will also have the opportunity to give a talk about my research there on Tuesday December 10 at 13:40 in Moscone West 2022-2024 before the Nye Lecture.
July 2019
Lots of news this month!
I have been nominated vice-chair of the International Association of Geodesy (IAG)'s subsection on Cryospheric Deformation with Jeff Freymueller as chair. I look forward to helping to forward research and facilitate collaborations and scientific discussions in this area.
Another reminder, as the abstract deadline fast approaches, that I am co-convening AGU Fall Meeting session C022 “Investigating the Feedbacks between Solid Earth Properties and the Cryosphere” with Samantha Hansen, Ricarda Dziadek and Aurélien Mordret. Abstracts can be submitted here: https://agu.confex.com/agu/fm19/prelim.cgi/Session/74693
PhD student Holly Han and I are currently at the Quaternary Research meeting INQUA in Dublin Ireland. I gave an invited talk in a great session on paleo-ice sheet model-data interactions (thank you to chairs Jeremy Ely and Lauren Gregoire), and Holly spoke about her work on coupled ice sheet - sea level modeling in the Northern Hemisphere. We have seen a lot of exciting new data and modeling on past climate, sea level and ice sheets here!
PhD students Dave Purnell and Holly Han both gave talks on their work at the IUGG General Assembly in Montreal, and I gave an invited talk on in an interesting interdisciplinary session on Geodesy for Atmospheric and Hydrospheric Climate Research. It was a great meeting and we enjoyed having colleagues from all over the world in our home city.
June 2019
I had the pleasure of attending and speaking at the Women in Physics Canada conference held at McGill University in Montreal this June. I learned a lot about physics as well as equity, diversity and inclusion in academia attending the conference, and it was an honour to have the opportunity to engage with and speak to the next generation of physicists. The organizers did a fantastic job with this conference.
I am looking forward to co-convening AGU Fall Meeting session C022 “Investigating the Feedbacks between Solid Earth Properties and the Cryosphere” with Samantha Hansen, Ricarda Dziadek and Aurélien Mordret. Abstracts can be submitted here:
https://agu.confex.com/agu/fm19/prelim.cgi/Session/74693 and the deadline is July 31, 2019. Hope to see you in San Francisco!

I am giving two public outreach talks this month about melting ice and sea level change in a warming climate. One is part of AstroMcGill's public lecture series on May 16th at 7pm on McGill campus, and the other is on Tuesday May 21st at McClean's Pub as part of a Science of Climate Change night at the Pint of Science Festival.
April 2019
Sea level change is a highly interdisciplinary field, and inconsistent understanding of related terminology and concepts across disciplines often gets in the way of progress. "Concepts and Terminology for Sea Level: Mean, Variability and Change, Both Local and Global" lead by Jonathan Gregory that I was involved in along with many others aims to get us all on the same page. https://rdcu.be/bzzjX
I am currently enjoying visiting the Division of Geological and Planetary Sciences at Caltech. It has been a pleasure to give a seminar and meet with such an engaging group of scientists. Later this week I travel to the University of Texas at Austin to give a seminar in the Jackson School of Geoscience - I am looking forward to connecting with colleagues there and meeting the department. I have been thinking about ways to cut back on my air travel recently, so I am happy to have been able to combine these two visits.
March 2019
I attended the ACDC 10 year anniversary alumni conference in Rodane, Norway. I attended an ACDC school on ice-ocean interactions as a graduate student in 2010, and the connections I made there have had a very positive impact on my career and research. Last year, I was delighted to join the organizing team and attend ACDC again as a lecturer this time. At the anniversary conference, it was remarkable to meet the wide range of climate scientists who had attended ACDC as students, and hear about how their research has unfolded since. I left feeling inspired about where our field is going, both in terms of research and community. I am looking forward to lecturing at the next ACDC on the Anthropocene in Yosemite National Park in September.
February 2019
Our new paper "Global consequences of 21st century ice melt" was published in Nature showing that ice sheets melting in the coming decades will have global consequences on sea levels, air temperatures, ocean circulation and weather variability. rdcu.be/blhHn
