معرفی
Oliver Marsh is a Research Fellow affiliated with the British Antarctic Survey (BAS) and the University of Cambridge. He specializes in ice shelf dynamics and mass loss mechanisms, focusing on short-term processes (hours to decades) critical to understanding Antarctic ice flow and global sea level rise. His work integrates high-resolution GNSS and satellite observations with numerical modeling to study melt variability, fracture evolution, and the impact of damage on ice properties.
Research Focus:
- Ice response to environmental forcing (e.g., ocean tides, extreme events)
- Short-term variability in ice shelf fracture growth
- Strain field analysis and numerical modeling
- Damage parameterization in ice sheet models
Supervision Interests: Projects on granular/fractured material deformation, ice melange, shear margins, and calving front dynamics. Fieldwork opportunities exist for validation, though they are optional.
Affiliations: Part of the C-CLEAR Doctoral Training Partnership (DTP) and Cambridge NERC Doctoral Landscape Awards (DLA). Collaborates with institutions like the Department of Earth Sciences, Scott Polar Research Institute, and British Antarctic Survey.
