Liz Keller
PhD
Carbon cycle modeler
Te Herenga Waka - Victoria University of Wellington and Earth Sciences New Zealand
Liz is a carbon cycle and earth system modeler with a research background in physics and nonlinear dynamics. Her current research interests include atmosphere-ice-ocean interactions and the impacts of climate change on the Earth’s natural carbon fluxes.
In the Antarctic Science Platform, Liz is investigating the implications of temperature overshoot scenarios for the stability of the Antarctic Ice Sheet and subsequent climate and ocean feedbacks. This has important implications for national carbon emission reduction targets and how quickly the global community must reach net-zero before irreversible change occurs.
