Young People's Burden: Requirement of Negative CO2 Emissions (2016, neutral): “Land area included covers 29 % of the globe and ocean area included covers 65 % of the globe.”
Evolving Understanding of Antarctic Ice‐Sheet Physics and Ambiguity in Probabilistic Sea‐Level Projections (2017, methodology): “, 2007] run offline and bias-corrected relative to a modern climatology [DeConto and Pollard, 2016; Le Brocq et al., 2010].”
The land ice contribution to sea level during the satellite era (2017, background): “More recent studies suggest that the potential contribution from Antarctica, in particular, could be larger than forecast in the AR5 (DeConto and Pollard 2016).”
Modeling Ice Shelf/Ocean Interaction in Antarctica: A Review (2016, background): “In some studies (e.g., Goldberg et al., 2012; De Rydt and Gudmundsson, 2016) the ocean model is run to steady state after changes in the ice cavity geometry at each coupling interval.”
Interacting tipping elements increase risk of climate domino effects under global warming (2020, background): “…studies have shown that a double fold-like bifurcation structure for the ice sheets can arise from the melt– elevation feedback (Levermann and Winkelmann, 2016) as well as from the marine ice sheet instability and other positive feedback mechanisms (e.g. DeConto and Pollard, 2016; Schoof, 2007).”
Evaluating the Economic Cost of Coastal Flooding (2018, background): “Dividing (11) by GDP in every period t allows us to trace the time path of the share of income lost due to the flooding of physical capital.”
The ability of societies to adapt to twenty-first-century sea-level rise (2018, methodology): “The Netherlands While a large part of The Netherlands already lies below sea level, and complex defences against sea floods are in place, SLR entails a number of challenges including (1) salt intrusion stressing agricultural production and freshwater provision in the west51; (2) the Maeslant barrier”
Tipping elements and climate–economic shocks: Pathways toward integrated assessment (2016, background): “Arguably, the possibility of a large-scale ice-sheet collapse is already built into some probabilistic sea-level rise projections [e.g., Kopp et al., 2014], although these may understate the probability of this outcome [DeConto and Pollard, 2016].”
