Nicolas Jourdain

Research Scientist (CR-CNRS)

My main research focus is on the interactions between the Antarctic ice sheet and the other components of the climate system, with the aim to reduce the uncertainty on future sea level rise. I am mostly working on numerical models representing interactions between the Southern Ocean and the Antarctic ice shelves. I am also interested in modelling the impact of a warming atmosphere on the stability of these ice shelves. I have other research activities on air-sea interactions and on various aspects of the Indo-Pacific climate.

Frontiers In Marine Science, 8. Abstract : Coastal areas are highly diverse, ecologically rich, regions of key socio-economic activity, and are particularly sensitive to sea-level change. Over most of the 20th century, global mean sea level has risen mainly due to warming and subsequent (...)
