TL;DR: It is found that glaciers in the Arctic, Canada, Alaska, coastal Greenland, the southern Andes, and high-mountain Asia contribute approximately as much melt water as the ice sheets themselves: 260 billion tons per year between 2003 and 2009, accounting for about 30% of the observed sea-level rise during that period.

TL;DR: The seasonal cycle in surface mass balance fully accounts for detrended GRACE mass variations, confirming insignificant subannual variation in ice sheet discharge.

TL;DR: This work combines satellite observations of its changing volume, flow and gravitational attraction with modelling of its surface mass balance to show that the Antarctic Ice Sheet lost 2,720 ± 1,390 billion tonnes of ice between 1992 and 2017, which corresponds to an increase in mean sea level of 7.6‚¬3.9 millimetres.

TL;DR: In this article, key observational indicators of climate change in the Arctic, most spanning a 47-year period (1971-2017) demonstrate fundamental changes among nine key elements of the Arctic system.

On the recent contribution of the Greenland ice sheet to sea level change
Michiel R. van den Broeke,Ellyn M. Enderlin,Ian M. Howat,Peter Kuipers Munneke,Brice Noël,Willem Jan van de Berg,Erik van Meijgaard,Bert Wouters +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors assess the recent contribution of the Greenland ice sheet (GrIS) to sea level change using the mass budget method, which quantifies ice sheet mass balance as the difference between surface mass balance (SMB) and solid ice discharge across the grounding line (D).
