Dr Max Brils

Research Fellow

School: Geography and Natural Sciences

I use numerical models to investigate how Earth's ice sheets respond to contemporary climate change. My previous work focussed on the interactions between Greenland and the atmosphere, while my current work looks into Antarctica's response to changes within the ocean.
