About Jason Box

I’ve been investigating glacier and ice sheet sensitivity to weather and climate for 16 years. My focus has remained the Greenland ice sheet. I’ve made 19 expeditions to Greenland since 1994. My time on the inland ice exceeds 1 year. I’m beginning to lose track as many ‘once in a lifetime’ experiences now blend into a career and nomadic way of life.

As part of the academic enterprise, I have authored or co-authored more than 30 peer-reviewed publications related to cryosphere-climate interactions. I instruct courses at The Ohio State University on atmosphere-surface interactions, general climatology, and environmental problems. I am a contributing author to the Nobel Peace Prize-winning Intergovernmental Pannel on Climate Change 2007 4th assessment report.
