With global temperatures quickly rising, there is a critical need to improve predictions of how high and fast future sea levels will rise. The accuracy of predictions is limited foremost by insufficient understanding of future ice-sheet behavior. Gomez¿s proposed research program aims to use state-of-the-art numerical modeling and a range of geophysical datasets to gain insight into the response of the polar ice sheets in a changing climate and improve projections of future sea level rise. In turn, this insight will elucidate the implications of climate change for vulnerable coastal populations and ecosystems, and inform the actions needed for resilience.

随着全球温度迅速升高，至关重要的需要改善对未来海平面高和快速的海平面的预测。预测的准确性是由于对未来的冰盖行为的理解不足而受到限制。戈麦斯（Gomez）的拟议研究计划旨在使用最先进的数值建模和一系列地球物理数据集，以深入了解在不断变化的气候下极地冰盖的响应，并改善未来海平面上升的预测。反过来，这种见解将阐明气候变化对脆弱的沿海人群和生态系统的影响，并告知弹性所需的行动。
