We welcome presentations on all aspects of ice shelf research, including, but not limited to:

• formation, flow and disintegration of ice shelves;
• response of ice shelves and tidewater glaciers to past, present and future climate variability;
• surface and basal mass balance of ice shelves;
• ice-ocean interaction at the calving front of ice shelves and tidewater glaciers;
• mass transport across the grounding line;
  - ocean circulation and water mass transformation beneath ice shelves and within pro-glacial fjords;
•  impact of ice shelves on the global ocean;
  - processes controlling the delivery of ocean heat to glaciated coastlines;
  - climate records from on or near current or former ice shelves;
  - iceberg calving, drift, melting, and decay

Further details of the meeting, eventually including instructions for on-line registration will follow in due course (all information will be on the local website http://rechenknecht.natgeo.su.se/FRISP2012).
