SUMMARY:Investigation of the role of glacial meltwater in Antarctica - Seu

DESCRIPTION:Antarctica is one of the most vulnerable regions to the influe
 nces of climate change. Especially\, the Antarctic ice shelves have been m
 elting extensively with the rapid grounding line retreat over the past dec
 ades\, resulting in a huge supply of glacial meltwater to the ocean. The m
 elting of ice shelves primarily depends on the changes in oceanic conditio
 ns near their fronts (eg thermocline variability)\, thus\, impact of glaci
 al meltwater on local hydrography and ocean circulations needs to be inves
 tigated. In this presentation\, I will investigate recent studies on the i
 mpact of glacial meltwater in Antarctica and show new observational result
 s in Ross and Amundsen Seas to revisit the role of glacial meltwater. In a
 ddition\, I will also introduce a new Antarctic research project (2023-203
 1) ‘Korea Network for Observation and prediction of ice sheet and sea le
 vel changes in a Warming world (K-NOW)’ which I am participating in as a
  Co-PI.
