The four cross cutting themes (storylines) of OCEAN:ICE are:
The ‘Antarctic Bottom Water’ theme, led by Povl Abrahamsen (UKRI-BAS).
The ‘Deep Uncertainty in Freshwater Fluxes (DUFF)’ theme, led by Frank Pattyn (ULB) and Jan
de Rydt (UNN).
The ‘Role of the Poles’ them, led by Robin Smith (UREAD).
The ‘Oxygen isotope’ them, led by Casimir de Lavergne (CNRS).
The four meetings of cross cutting themes owere held over October/November 2023. Two of these,
the Deep Uncertainty in Freshwater Fluxes and the Antarctic Bottom Water, were held in
person/hybrid during the OCEAN:ICE annual science meeting in Paris (23-26 October 2023), whilst the
other two, Oxygen Isotopes and Role of the Poles, were held virtually in the following weeks. The
reason for this spread in meetings was to avoid overlap between people wishing to attend multiple
meetings, a likely occurrence for cross cutting themes across work packages. These meetings extend
those held virtual in April 2023, and will be followed up with further virtual meetings in May 2024.
Each meeting was attended by project members and invited external participants. Meeting notes and
the recordings of these meetings are available internally to project partners via the project SharePoint.
A summary of the key discussion points and actions arising is provided in this milestone report.
