Recent News: Click here to link to our 2015 Nature paper predicting the multi-millenial commitment of the Antarctic Ice Sheets to sea level change based on IPCC projected pathways. Ice sheet models suggest up to 3 meters of sea level rise in the next 300 years due to ice loss in Antarctica based on IPCC high emission scenarios.
Student Opportunities
If you have a desire to understand the world’s evolving climate and the resulting impacts locally or globally please contact Professor Kowalewski for opportunities in becoming fluent running computer model simulations or become trained collecting and interpreting field data. Kowalewski’s research takes on a model-data approach so students can contribute in his lab whether students enjoy making discoveries in the field or excel in computer programing, data management, or GIS. Kowalewski welcomes bright, motivated students from any discipline (communications, computer science, math, chemistry) to assist in his lab.

AntarcticKids
The AntarcticKids program brings the Antarctic experience into the K-12 classroom or to homeschooled students. Since 2005 Kowalewski has enabled students to participate (remotely) in field research and conduct experiments with exciting discoveries.
