First Antarctic Climate Evolution (ACE) Symposium
last update: May 06, 2009 12:23 PM
The Antarctic Climate Evolution (ACE) project is an initiative of the Scientific Committee on Antarctic Research (SCAR) and one of the endorsed IPY science projects (Project No 54). ACE aims to investigate the climate and glacial history of Antarctica by linking climate and ice-sheet modeling studies with geophysical surveys and geological studies, on and around the Antarctic continent.

The main theme of the First ACE Symposium will therefore be the integration of paleoenvironmental data and numerical models for improved understanding of processes related to the past, present, and future dynamics and interactions of the Antarctic atmosphere, ocean, cryosphere, and biosphere. The Symposium aims to bring together scientists from different but complimentary fields of research in paleoclimate (geological, geophysical, biological, ice-core, and modeling communities) working in Antarctica. We will explore how these scientific communities can interact to obtain the most complete Cenozoic Antarctic paleoclimate records through data-model comparisons. Interactions will also be promoted with the paleoclimate scientific communities working in the Arctic.
