Importance and vulnerability of the world's water towers

TL;DR: The worldwide distribution and water supply of water towers (snowy or glacierized mountain ranges) is indexed, showing that the most important water towers are also the most vulnerable to socio-economic and climate-change stresses, with huge potential negative impacts on populations downstream.
Journal ArticleDOI

A community-based geological reconstruction of Antarctic Ice Sheet deglaciation since the Last Glacial Maximum

Michael J. Bentley, +76 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a series of timeslice maps for 20 ka, 15 ka, 10 ka and 5 ka, including grounding line position and ice sheet thickness changes, along with a clear assessment of levels of confidence.
Journal ArticleDOI

Accelerating shrinkage of Patagonian glaciers from the Little Ice Age (~AD 1870) to 2011

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used the Little Ice Age (LIA) trimlines and moraines to assess changes in South American glaciers over the last ∼140 years and determined the extent and length of 640 glaciers during the LIA and 626 glaciers (the remainder having entirely disappeared) in 1986, 2001 and 2011.
