Gomez’s work draws on climate science, glaciology and global geophysics and aims to model and understand records of the Earth's response to past and ongoing climate change and improve predictions of future sea-level rise as the climate warms.[6] She is credited with identifying the importance of the stabilizing feedback of gravitationally self-consistent sea-level changes onto the stability and dynamics of marine ice sheets,[7][8][9] and she has also explored the role of the rheology of the solid Earth on ice sheet and sea level evolution.[10]
