Mathieu Morlighem

Mathieu Morlighem is a Professor in the Department of Earth Sciences at Dartmouth College, holding the Evans Family Distinguished Professorship. His research focuses on ice sheet physics, climate system interactions, and sea level rise projections.

• Expertise in polar climate change
• Specialization in ice sheet numerical modeling
• Leadership in data assimilation techniques
• Development of Physics-Informed Neural Networks for ice dynamics

His work combines high-resolution numerical models with remote sensing data to understand glacier behavior in Greenland and Antarctica. Recent publications emphasize subglacial topography estimation, calving parameterizations, and ice-hydrology coupling mechanisms.

Current projects involve the Ice-sheet and Sea-level System Model (ISSM) and collaborations with institutions across Europe and the US. He teaches courses in Earth system modeling and mathematical geosciences.
