A high resolution record of Greenland mass balance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We map recent Greenland Ice Sheet elevation change at high spatial (5-km) and temporal (monthly) resolution using CryoSat-2 altimetry. After correcting for the impact of changing snowpack properties associated with unprecedented surface melting in 2012 ...

Effects of the Last Quaternary Glacial Forebulge on Vertical Land Movement, Sea‐Level Change, and Lithospheric Stresses

open access: yesReviews of Geophysics, Volume 63, Issue 3, September 2025.
Abstract A glacial forebulge is a bending‐related upheaval of the lithosphere outside a glaciated area that co‐occurs to the depression of the lithosphere below an ice sheet. The forebulge of the last glaciation attracted attention over more than one century, but quantitative descriptions on the geometry of the forebulge are rare.

How Greenland melts

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2010
Satellite altimetry and gravimetry show that the Greenland ice sheet has been losing volume and mass since the beginning of this century. However, from these short time series of direct measurements we cannot infer what the causes of the mass loss are, i.

Constraining the geothermal heat flux in Greenland at regions of radar-detected basal water

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 2019
The spatial distribution of basal water critically impacts the evolution of ice sheets. Current estimates of basal water distribution beneath the Greenland Ice Sheet (GrIS) contain large uncertainties due to poorly constrained boundary conditions ...

DNA Metabarcoding Focusing on Eukaryote Communities on Langhovde Glacier, East Antarctica

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 17, Issue 4, August 2025.
Based on comprehensive 18S rRNA gene analysis, this study characterises the eukaryotic communities inhabiting the supraglacial environments of Langhovde Glacier, East Antarctica, in relation to the associated aquatic chemistry. Genetic differences between organisms found in the surrounding ice‐free areas and those in distant snow and ice fields are ...

A Greenland-wide empirical reconstruction of paleo ice sheet retreat informed by ice extent markers: PaleoGrIS version 1.0 [PDF]

open access: yesClimate of the Past
The Greenland Ice Sheet is a large contributor to global sea level rise, and current mass losses are projected to accelerate. However, model projections of future ice sheet evolution are limited by the fact that the ice sheet is not in equilibrium with ...

Sensitivity of Response of Greenland Ice Sheet to Global Warming on Surface Mass Balance and Initialization methods [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We present a series of numerical experiments of Greenland ice sheet under global warming condition using Ice sheet model for Integrated Earth system Studies (ICIES).

Liquid Water Flow and Retention on the Greenland Ice Sheet in the Regional Climate Model HIRHAM5: Local and Large-Scale Impacts

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2017
To improve Greenland Ice Sheet surface mass balance (SMB) simulation, the subsurface scheme of the HIRHAM5 regional climate model was extended to include snow densification, varying hydraulic conductivity, irreducible water saturation and other effects ...
