As the climate warms and Antarctica's glaciers and ice sheets melt, the resulting rise in sea level has the potential to displace hundreds of millions of people around the world by the end of this century. A key uncertainty in how much and how fast the seas will rise lies in whether currently "stable" parts of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet can become "unstable". One such region is West Antarctica's Siple Coast, where rivers of ice flow off the continent and drain into the ocean.

Projecting when and how fast the West Antarctic Ice Sheet will lose mass due to current and future global ocean warming – and the likely impact on sea level rise and coastal communities – is a priority for climate science. We know deep water flowing towards and around Antarctica is warming, and the fringes of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet (WAIS) are increasingly vulnerable to ocean-driven melting.
