This is the first book dedicated to the developing knowledge on how
the world's largest ice sheet formed and changed over its 34
million years history. In explaining the story of Antartica,
information on terrestrial and marine geology, sedimentology,
glacier geophysics (including airborne reconnaissance), shipborne
geophysics, and numerical ice sheet and climate modelling, will be
interwoven within eleven chapters, each deling with an important
historical theme. The approach will be to first 'set the scene',
involving chapters dedicated to how ice sheets and their glacial
history can be measured. This opening section will provide
information necessary to comprehend the latter section of the book,
in which five chapters will related the glacial and climate
evolution of Antartica during the most important time-frames in
which changes have occurred.
* An overview of antarctic climate change, analysing historical,
