Modelling the climate and surface mass balance of polar ice sheets using RACMO2 – Part 1: Greenland (1958–2016)
Brice Noël,Willem Jan van de Berg,J. Melchior van Wessem,Erik van Meijgaard,Dirk van As,Jan T. M. Lenaerts,Stef Lhermitte,Peter Kuipers Munneke,C. J. P. Paul Smeets,Lambertus H. van Ulft,Roderik S. W. van de Wal,Michiel R. van den Broeke +11 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluate modelled Greenland ice sheet (GrIS) near-surface climate, surface energy balance (SEB) and surface mass balance (SMB) from the updated regional climate model RACMO2 (1958-2016).
Journal ArticleDOI
Increased West Antarctic and unchanged East Antarctic ice discharge over the last 7 years
Alex S. Gardner,Geir Moholdt,Ted Scambos,Mark Fahnstock,Stefan R. M. Ligtenberg,Michiel R. van den Broeke,Johan Nilsson +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the present-day Antarctic-wide surface velocities using Landsat 7 and 8 imagery spanning 2013-2015 and compare to earlier estimates derived from synthetic aperture radar, revealing heterogeneous changes in ice flow since ∼2008.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modelling the climate and surface mass balance of polar ice sheets using RACMO2 – Part 2: Antarctica (1979–2016)
Jan Melchior van Wessem,Willem Jan van de Berg,Brice Noël,Erik van Meijgaard,Charles Amory,Gerit Birnbaum,Constantijn L. Jakobs,Konstantin Krüger,Jan T. M. Lenaerts,Stef Lhermitte,Stefan R. M. Ligtenberg,Brooke Medley,Carleen Reijmer,Kristof Van Tricht,Luke D. Trusel,Lambertus H. van Ulft,Bert Wouters,Jan Wuite,Michiel R. van den Broeke +18 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluate modelled Antarctic ice sheet (AIS) near-surface climate, surfacemass balance (SMB) and surface energy balance (SEB) from the updated polar version of the regional atmospheric climate model, RACMO2 (1979-2016).
Journal ArticleDOI
Recent large increases in freshwater fluxes from Greenland into the North Atlantic
Jonathan L. Bamber,Michiel R. van den Broeke,Janneke Ettema,Janneke Ettema,Jan T. M. Lenaerts,Eric Rignot,Eric Rignot +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a reconstruction of the spatially distributed freshwater flux from Greenland for 1958-2010, and find a modest increase into the Arctic Ocean during this period.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sustained mass loss of the northeast Greenland ice sheet triggered by regional warming
Shfaqat Abbas Khan,Kurt H. Kjær,Michael Bevis,Jonathan L. Bamber,John Wahr,Kristian K. Kjeldsen,Anders A. Bjørk,Niels J. Korsgaard,Leigh A. Stearns,Michiel R. van den Broeke,Lin Liu,Nicolaj K. Larsen,Ioana Stefania Muresan +12 more
TL;DR: The Greenland ice sheet is a large contributor to sea-level rise primarily because of the increased speed of its glaciers in the southeast and northwest as discussed by the authors, and the Greenland ice stream in northeast Greenland is thinning due to regional warming.
