Ryan North
Ryan North is a Research Fellow at Monash University investigating changes to the Antarctic Ice Sheet and its outlet glaciers. Ryan’s work aims to improve our understanding of how the ice sheet thickness and extent has changed in past to better inform how it might change in the future. He has extensive multidisciplinary experience in geochemistry, field geology, remote sensing and image processing. As part of SAEF, Ryan will extend the record of glacier and ice sheet change across various sites in Antarctica and the sub-Antarctic by decades to thousands of years using historical imagery and cosmogenic nuclide dating.
“Antarctica is a keystone that upholds the world’s climate, ocean and biological systems that we rely on.”
