TL;DR: This article used an extrapolation of glaciological and geodetic observations to show that glaciers contributed 27 ± 22 millimetres to global mean sea-level rise from 1961 to 2016.

TL;DR: The largest collection so far of glaciological and geodetic observations suggests that glaciers contributed about 27 millimetres to sea-level rise from 1961 to 2016, at rates of ice loss that could see the disappearance of many glaciers this century.

TL;DR: This article proposed a framework for reanalysing glacier mass balance series that includes conceptual and statistical toolsets for assessment of random and systematic errors, as well as for validation and calibration of the glaciological with the geodetic balance results.

TL;DR: The authors analyzed the effect of the sequence of tropical volcanic eruptions in observations, global three-dimensional climate field reconstructions and coupled climate model simulations, and concluded that the end of the Little Ice Age was marked by the recovery from a sequence of volcanic events, which makes it difficult to define a single pre-industrial baseline.

TL;DR: In this paper, a nonlinear backpropagation network (BPN) was trained with high-resolution multiproxy reconstructions of temperature and precipitation (input data) and glacier length variations of the Alpine Lower Grindelwald Glacier, Switzerland (output data).
