Bas de Boer

My name is Bas de Boer and I am a postdoctoral researcher working together with Didier Roche and Pepijn Bakker on past and future sea-level change. My expertise is in climate, ice-sheet and sea-level modelling, developing (global) coupled models and comparing model output with past (paleo) observations of climate change. I have looking into different periods of the past, Cenozoic ice-sheet changes, the warm Pliocene and the glacial-interglacial changes in the Pleistocene. In the current project we will look into how ice sheets responded to climate changes during the last interglacial as an analogue for the future, and also run simulations to project future sea-level change and investigate the impact of sea-level rise.

Data and Model output

Below, model output can be found for a number of model simulations, simulating ice volume, temperature, sea level and CO₂. Please refer to the text files or the README files for the respective papers that describe the data. The data can also be found on database website such as Pangaea and the NOAA Paleoclimate database.

• Pliocene (about 3.5 - 3 Myr ago) transient 3-D ice-volume simulations
• 5 million years of ice volume, sea level and temperature from 3-D ice-sheet modelling
• 5 million year output of ice-sheet thickness, surface and bedrock elevation
• 410 kyr ice-sheet output of ice-sheet thickness (coupled to SELEN)
• 5 million year simulation of CO2 from 1-D ice-sheets and energy balance modelling
• 20 million years reconstruction of CO2 based on data and 1-D ice-sheet modelling
• 40 million years sea level and temperature from 1-D ice-sheet modelling
