An EconoTimes perspective

Steven Phipps

Paleo Ice Sheet Modeller, University of Tasmania

Dr Steven Phipps is an ice sheet modeller, climate system modeller and palaeoclimatologist, based within the Institute for Marine and Antarctic Studies at the University of Tasmania in Hobart, Tasmania, Australia. His research aims to understand past changes in Antarctica and the climate of the Southern Hemisphere, particularly during the period from the Last Glacial Maximum (around 21,000 years ago) to present. To approach this problem, he uses a combination of ice sheet models, climate system models and natural archives, such as ice cores, tree rings and corals.
