A deep-learning model infers large-scale dynamics of Antarctic ice shelves

Stanford research focused on the large-scale movements of the Antarctic ice sheet could help improve predictions about how the continent will change in the future.

Stanford researchers have combined machine learning with high-resolution satellite and airplane observations to understand the physics behind large-scale ice movements in Antarctica. The results show ...

Daily life at US-run Antarctic stations has already been disrupted. Scientists worry that the long-term impacts could upend not only important research but the continent’s delicate geopolitics.
