My current slides are linked above. In short:
i) Bathymetry
ii) Basal melt rates - APRES
iii) Hydrography - seals on shelf, AABW trends, sea ice thickness
iv) Circulations - ASC, coastal current data, ice cavity circulations
v) Atmosphere drives the ocean: need good driver.

All comments welcome. Thanks!
