Felicity’s research uses ice sheet models to investigate the impact of climate variability and change on the East Antarctic Ice Sheet, and the contribution of this to future sea level rise. She is currently an ARC DECRA Fellow in Antarctic Research and in 2019, was awarded a Fulbright Postdoctoral Fellowship at the University of California. 

“Antarctica is an incredible place, vital for Earth’s climate and ecosystems – it’s worth doing everything we can to protect it.”
