Personal experiences of living with sucrose intolerance and attitudes towards genetic research in Greenland - a user study

International Journal of Circumpolar Health
There is high prevalence of the genetic SI variant c.273_274delAG in the sucrase-isomaltase-encoding gene in Greenland, resulting in congenital sucrase-isomaltase deficiency and thereby an inability to digest sucrose, the most common dietary sugar. There

A complete map of Greenland ice velocity derived from satellite data collected over 20 years

Journal of Glaciology, 2017
While numerous maps of Greenland ice flow velocity exist, most have gaps in coverage and/or accuracy is limited. We processed a large volume of synthetic aperture radar and Landsat 8 imagery collected between 1995 and 2015 to produce a nearly complete ...

Weather features drive free‐tropospheric baroclinicity variability in the North Atlantic storm track

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
We show that synoptic weather features, such as extratropical cyclones, fronts, and atmospheric rivers, contribute to more than half of the total variability of free‐tropospheric baroclinicity in the North Atlantic storm track, despite their limited spatial and temporal extent.

Decreasing cloud cover drives the recent mass loss on the Greenland Ice Sheet

Science Advances, 2017
Reduction in summer cloud cover over the Greenland Ice Sheet is the main driver of recent melt. The Greenland Ice Sheet (GrIS) has been losing mass at an accelerating rate since the mid-1990s.

ERA5 deficit in supercooled liquid water cloud radiative forcing at Dome C, Antarctica

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Meteorological reanalyses from ERA5 for December from 1940 to the present have been analysed to assess the logarithmic relationship between liquid water path (LWP, liquid water profile integrated along the vertical) and supercooled liquid water (SLW, liquid water at temperatures less than 0°C) cloud radiative forcing (CRF) over Dome C, Antarctica as ...
