DESCRIPTION:Understanding how ice sheets change due to ongoing climate cha
 nge is important and this requires numerical models. Times in Earth's hist
 ory that had a similar climate to predictions of the future can be used to
  test these model predictions. However\, as ice sheets wax and wane they e
 rode the landscape. This modifies how much ice the landscape can support. 
 Therefore\, it is crucial that we are able to accurately constrain landsca
 pe change. Thermochronometry\, measures how rocks cool as they are brought
  to the surface by erosion and can be used to measure landscape change. I 
 will present examples of using thermochronometry to understand landscape c
 hange in Greenland and Antarctica.
