đŁA #WHOI-led study on the overlapping impacts of sea level rise, permafrost thaw, and erosion has received a 2024 Cozzarelli Prize from the prestigious journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Science! This award recognizes articles that represent outstanding scientific excellence and originality.
The study shows that by 2100, the combined effects will likely push Alaskaâs shoreline inland to a location not seen since the last interglacial period over 100,000 years ago. WHOI lead authors Roger Creel and Julia Guimond say this triple-threat poses serious risks to Native Alaskan villages and oilfield infrastructure under projected emissions scenarios.
