Overview

The 4th US Ice Core Community Meeting (IceCOMM) & a joint Hercules Dome Workshop will be held May 12-14, 2025, at the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis, MN.

IceCOMM is intended for anyone interested in ice core science and related fields, including ice-core analysis, ice or subglacial drilling, and glacier geophysics that supports or depends on ice-core records, paleoclimate, and contemporary climate and ice-sheet change.

This year’s IceCOMM will include a half-day Hercules Dome workshop to update the community on logistics planning and for coordination of Hercules Dome science. Those planning to submit proposals to be part of the Hercules Dome ice core ice-analysis team are encouraged to attend. We also strongly recommend joining the Hercules Dome mailing list.

Details on hotel rooms, travel support, and other aspects of the meeting and workshop will be publicized at https://herculesdome.org/ by the end of February 2025. Funding support for IceCOMM is provided by U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF) via the Hercules Dome Ice Core project.

The meeting will be followed by an Ice Core Early Career Researchers Workshop (ICECReW) for early career researchers, which will be held May 15-16, 2025, also at the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis, MN.
