The Isotopic Composition of Present-Day Antarctic Snow in a Lagrangian Atmospheric Simulation*
TL;DR: In this article, the isotopic composition of present-day Antarctic snow is simulated for the period September 1980-August 2002 using a Rayleigh-type isotope distillation model in combination with backward trajectory calculations with 40-yr European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) Re-Analysis (ERA-40) data as meteorological input.
Journal ArticleDOI
Assessing spatio-temporal variability and trends in modelled and measured Greenland Ice Sheet albedo (2000–2013)
Patrick Alexander,Marco Tedesco,Xavier Fettweis,R. S. W. van de Wal,C. J. P. P. Smeets,M. R. van den Broeke +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors assess the spatio-temporal variability of GrIS albedo for the period 2000-2013 and reveal a difference in mean albedos of up to 0:08 between the two remote sensing products north of 70 N.
Journal ArticleDOI
Model calculations of the age of firn air across the Antarctic continent
K. A. Kaspers,R. S. W. van de Wal,M. R. van den Broeke,Jakob Schwander,N. P. M. van Lipzig,Carl A. M. Brenninkmeijer +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a model that calculates the age of firn air at pore close-off depth for the entire Antarctic continent using four meteorological parameters as input (surface temperature, pressure, accumulation rate and wind speed).

Framework for High-End Estimates of Sea Level Rise for Stakeholder Applications
Detlef Stammer,R. S. W. van de Wal,Robert J. Nicholls,John A. Church,G. Le Cozannet,Jason Lowe,Jason Lowe,Benjamin P. Horton,Kathleen D. White,D. H. Behar,J. Hinkel +10 more
TL;DR: In this article, a conceptual framework for high-end estimates as a function of time scale is presented to link robust sea level science with stakeholder needs, while considering various levels of risk aversion of diverse stakeholders who make coastal policy and adaptation decisions.
