FRISP workshop 2023

We are pleased to announce that the 36th Forum for Research into Ice Shelf Processes (FRISP 2023) will take place at Stalheim Hotel, Norway. Please find further details here (comming soon): https://www.tipaccs.eu/ Registration will open in January 2023. The meeting will in-person only and will be held at Stalheim Hotel. Vestland, Norway from Monday 19th to Thursday 22nd June 2023.

The FRISP meeting is an opportunity for scientists working on ice shelf processes to meet in an informal setting and to exchange ideas, results and field plans. Presentations on all aspects of ice shelf research are welcome, including, but not limited to:

• formation, flow and disintegration of ice shelves and tidewater glaciers
• response of ice shelves and tidewater glaciers to past, present and future climate variability
• surface and basal mass balance of ice shelves
• ice-ocean interaction at the calving front of ice shelves and tidewater glaciers
• mass transport across the grounding line
• ocean circulation and water mass transformation beneath ice shelves and within pro-glacial fjords
• impact of ice shelves on the global ocean
• processes controlling the delivery of ocean heat to glaciated coastlines
• climate records from on or near current or former ice shelves
• iceberg calving, drift, melting, and decay
