报告人简介

Frank Pattyn is a glaciologist/ice-sheet modeller and director of the Laboratoire de Glaciologie of the ULB. His research focuses on improving projections of the contribution of large ice sheets (especially Antarctica) to future sea-level rise. He developed a number of ice-sheet models, such as the Blatter-Pattyn model, capable of simulating the behaviour of fast-flowing ice streams and ice flow across subglacial lakes. He is also actively involved in a series of Ice-Sheet Model Intercomparison Projects (ISMIP), such as ISMIP-HOM, ISMIP-HEINO, MISMIP, MISMIP3D, and ABUMIP. He is currently Chairman of the Belgian National Committee on Antarctic Research (SCAR delegate) and Associate Chief Editor of Journal of Glaciology.

报告简介

In this lecture we will see how to solve numerically the equations that we have derived in the previous lecture, what numerical methods can be used and how we can verify and validate ice sheet and glacier models. We finally demonstrate how these numerical models can be employed for simulating real ice sheets and investigate the simulation of the Greenland ice sheet in a warming climate.
