Journal ArticleDOI
Evidence and analysis of 2012 Greenland records from spaceborne observations, a regional climate model and reanalysis data
Marco Tedesco,Xavier Fettweis,Thomas L. Mote,John Wahr,Patrick Alexander,Jason E. Box,Bert Wouters,Bert Wouters +7 more
TL;DR: A combined analysis of remote sensing observations, regional climate model (RCM) outputs and reanalysis data over the Greenland ice sheet provides evidence that multiple records were set during summer 2012 as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Manual aspiration versus chest tube drainage in first episodes of primary spontaneous pneumothorax: a multicenter, prospective, randomized pilot study.
TL;DR: It is suggested that in first episodes of primary spontaneous pneumothorax, manual aspiration seems equally effective as chest tube drainage and is safe, well tolerated, and feasible as an outpatient procedure in the majority of patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
The darkening of the Greenland ice sheet: trends, drivers, and projections (1981-2100)
Marco Tedesco,Marco Tedesco,Sarah J. Doherty,Xavier Fettweis,Patrick Alexander,Patrick Alexander,Patrick Alexander,Jeyavinoth Jeyaratnam,Julienne Stroeve +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used space-borne multispectral data collected during the 3 decades from 1981 to 2012 to show that summertime surface albedo over the Greenland ice sheet decreased at a statistically significant (99 %) rate of 0.02

TL;DR: In this article, the authors estimate probability distributions for these projections under the new scenarios using statistical emulation of the ice sheet and glacier models, and find that limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius would halve the land ice contribution to twenty-first-century sea level rise, relative to current emissions pledges.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used a large ensemble of Greenland ice sheet models forced by output from a representative subset of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP5) global climate models to project ice sheet changes and sea-level rise contributions over the 21st century.
