DESCRIPTION:The Antarctic Ice Sheet is the single largest source of uncerta
 inty in long-term sea level rise\, with model ensembles contributing to th
 e most recent IPCC AR6 spanning over 4 metres of projected contribution by
  2300. Here\, I review recent ice sheet model outputs\, showing that near-
 term ice loss is remarkably predictable: across IPCC AR6 ice sheet models\
 , present-day loss rates scale approximately linearly with mid-century pro
 jections\, regardless of emission scenario or model complexity. Beyond mid
 -century\, processes that cause accelerating ice loss intensify and this p
 redictability breaks down. Considering historical ice loss\, I also presen
 t recent modelling advances on a new detection and attribution framework t
 o isolate the anthropogenic footprint in observed Antarctic change\, and d
 iscuss what this implies for future committed sea level rise.\nSpeaker: Fe
