Many thanks to the wonderful Jean Bahr who nominated me for this award. And many thanks to all of you out there who are champions of climate communication. Our job will never be done, but we have strength in numbers and in some really amazingly talented people doing this work.

I really appreciate the recognition for this work that I find incredibly rewarding, but can also be depressing, challenging, and elicits comments/emails/letters from people who are - let's say - not fans. At least for the moment, I feel both seen and appreciated.

In a nutshell: there is debate, the 6-9 m number may be too high (but also may not be). Not all field sites agree. Certainly higher than present - how many meters higher depends on some assumptions about GIA parameterization and potential effects of dynamic topography. More work on this forthcoming!

Warming of +1.5 °C is too high for polar ice sheets - Communications Earth & Environment
Warming of +1.5 °C above pre-industrial levels is too high for the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets, and even the current climate forcing of +1.2 °C is likely to lead to several meters of sea-level ...
