Changes in the West Antarctic Ice Sheet

Science, 1991
The portion of the West Antarctic ice sheet that flows into the Ross Sea is thinning in some places and thickening in others. These changes are not caused by any current climatic change, but by the combination of a delayed response to the end of the last global glacial cycle and an internal instability. The near-future impact of the ice sheet on global

Mass balance of the Antarctic ice sheet

Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 2006
The Antarctic contribution to sea-level rise has long been uncertain. While regional variability in ice dynamics has been revealed, a picture of mass changes throughout the continental ice sheet is lacking. Here, we use satellite radar altimetry to measure the elevation change of 72% of the grounded ice sheet during the period 1992–2003 ...

The East Antarctic Ice Sheet

2010
Antarctica is the fifth largest continent on the Earth with an area of 14,200,000 km2. About 98% of the surface of Antarctica is covered by an ice sheet that is 2,000 m thick on average. The volume of the ice sheet has changed in the course of time and reached a maximum during the late Wisconsin (Weichselian) ice age about 20,000 years ago.
