Accelerating Ice Loss From Peripheral Glaciers in North Greenland
Geophysical Research Letters, 2022 In recent decades, Greenland's peripheral glaciers have experienced large‐scale mass loss, resulting in a substantial contribution to sea level rise.

Dyslipidemia and the preventive potential in the Greenlandic population
Atherosclerosis Plus, 2023 Background: Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) is a well-established risk factor for development of cardiovascular diseases. Based on available clinical data, we aimed to investigate the plasma lipid profile in the Greenlandic population, the ...

Forty-six years of Greenland Ice Sheet mass balance from 1972 to 2018
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2019 Significance We reconstruct the mass balance of the Greenland Ice Sheet for the past 46 years by comparing glacier ice discharge into the ocean with interior accumulation of snowfall from regional atmospheric climate models over 260 drainage basins.

Submarine melting of glaciers in Greenland amplified by atmospheric warming
Nature Geoscience, 2022 Rapid ice loss from the Greenland ice sheet since 1992 is due in equal parts to increased surface melting and accelerated ice flow. The latter is conventionally attributed to ocean warming, which has enhanced submarine melting of the fronts of Greenland ...

Earliest Holocene south Greenland ice sheet retreat within its late Holocene extent [PDF]
, 2014 Early Holocene summer warmth drove dramatic Greenland ice sheet (GIS) retreat. Subsequent insolation-driven cooling caused GIS margin readvance to late Holocene maxima, from which ice margins are now retreating.

The Cryosphere, 2019 . The subglacial environment of the Greenland Ice Sheet (GrIS) is poorly constrained both in its bulk properties, for example geology, the presence of sediment, and the presence of water, and interfacial conditions, such as roughness and bed rheology ...

Geophysical Research Letters, 2020 We examine data continuity between the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) and GRACE Follow‐On (FO) missions over Greenland and Antarctica using independent data from the mass budget method, which calculates the difference between ice sheet ...

Reporting chronic kidney disease in Greenland
International Journal of Circumpolar Health, 2023 Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a major health burden affecting more than 10% of the global population. It is a multifactorial disease with many risk factors attributed lifestyle diseases.

Geophysical Research Letters, 2017 Greenland's bed topography is a primary control on ice flow, grounding line migration, calving dynamics, and subglacial drainage. Moreover, fjord bathymetry regulates the penetration of warm Atlantic water (AW) that rapidly melts and undercuts Greenland ...

Ice sheets as a significant source of highly reactive nanoparticulate iron to the oceans [PDF]
, 2014 The Greenland and Antarctic Ice Sheets cover ~\n10% of global land surface, but are rarely considered as active components of the global iron cycle. The ocean waters around both ice sheets harbour highly productive coastal ecosystems, many of which are ...
