2018 Forum for Research into Ice Shelf Processes (FRISP) workshop (32nd)

The 32nd FRISP workshop will be held in the French Alps from September 3rd to 6th.

Deadline for pre-registration is 15 May 2018.

FRISP is a subcommmittee of the Scientific Committee on Antarctic Research (SCAR) Working Group of Glaciology. For several years the work of the FRISP parties was focused on the Filchner-Ronne Ice Shelf (FRIS). But meanwhile the geographical restriction to FRIS was widened up and other ice shelves have been included into the investigations. FRISP started out as an European forum, but now welcomes any scientist working on ice shelves and related issues. FRISP remains a focus on glaciology, but the scope is extended to include continental shelf oceanography, meteorology, and quaternary paleoclimatology to encourage discussion between these disciplines. More info can be found on FRISP website. Workshops are regularly organised, and this year workshop, FRISP-2018, is organised by JB Sallée and N. Jourdain.
