Mason Fried '10 presented a paper at the fall meeting of the American Geophysical Union in San Francisco in December. He wrote the paper, "A Radial Pattern of Six Paleo Ice Streams Emanating from the Bruce Plateau Ice Dome, Antarctic Peninsula Ice Sheet: Constraints from Multibeam Bathymetry and GPS Rebound," with Eugene Domack, J. W.Johnson Family Professor of Environmental Studies; Miguel Canals (Universitat de Barcelona); J. Casamor and Matt King (Newcastle University, U.K.).

Fried wrote the paper using results from his summer research project with Domack. In March, Fried will accompany Domack to Antarctica to continue his research.

The study presented in Fried's paper is "pertinent to realizing the effect of moderate ice sheet size during collapse and resulting sea level rise," according to the abstract. "It provides the framework for the most detailed and well constrained ice sheet reconstruction for any sector of the Antarctic margin and will therefore serve as a test case for temporal variations in ice thickness, potential flow rates and substrate conditions."
