Outlook for Policy Makers: The Antarctic Ice Sheet and Sea Level

This document outlines strategic priorities for understanding the Antarctic Ice Sheet (AIS) and its impacts on sea-level rise due to climate change, drawn primarily from a recent collaborative science review led by the Australian Antarctic Division and includes recent updates to projections of future change. It highlights the threats posed by AIS melting to Australia and its neighbours, including in the Pacific, along with research priorities and policy recommendations.
