To understand the processes and mechanisms driving present day ice-loss, I look to the past by employing cosmogenic isotopes as an archive of ice-sheet change and use them to evaluate numerical ice-sheet model experiments. This demonstrates how critical archives are to contextualizing change and building a roadmap toward addressing ongoing crises like climate change. Then, to underscore this principle, I analyze conference reports and professional correspondence from the 1970s to problematize the popular understanding of why geoscience lacks diversity and offer archive-informed ways forward.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Past as prologue: how archives help us predict the fate of Earth\u2019s ice sheets and the future of our discipline Thursday, February 4 at 11:00AM (MDT): Dr. Benjamin Keisling Abstract: The Greenland ice sheet is losing mass at a rate<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-82","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-speaker-series"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/cms.eas.ualberta.ca\/gasi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/82","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/cms.eas.ualberta.ca\/gasi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/cms.eas.ualberta.ca\/gasi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms.eas.ualberta.ca\/gasi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms.eas.ualberta.ca\/gasi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=82"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/cms.eas.ualberta.ca\/gasi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/82\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":83,"href":"https:\/\/cms.eas.ualberta.ca\/gasi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/82\/revisions\/83"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/cms.eas.ualberta.ca\/gasi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=82"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms.eas.ualberta.ca\/gasi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=82"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms.eas.ualberta.ca\/gasi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=82"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
