A new, high‐resolution surface mass balance map of Antarctica (1979–2010) based on regional atmospheric climate modeling

TL;DR: In this paper, a high resolution surface mass balance map of the Antarctic ice sheet is presented, based on the output of a regional atmospheric climate model that includes snowdrift physics and is forced by the most recent reanalysis data from the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF), ERA-Interim (1979-2010).
Journal ArticleDOI

A Review of Antarctic Surface Snow Isotopic Composition : Observations, Atmospheric Circulation, and Isotopic Modeling

TL;DR: In this article, a database of surface Antarctic snow isotopic composition is constructed using available measurements, with an estimate of data quality and local variability, and the capacity of theoretical isotopic, regional, and general circulation atmospheric models to reproduce the observed features and assess the role of moisture advection in spatial deuterium excess fluctuations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reassessment of the Antarctic surface mass balance using calibrated output of a regional atmospheric climate model

TL;DR: In this paper, a detailed comparison of model-simulated and observed Antarctic surface mass balance (SMB) is presented, using output of a regional atmospheric climate model (RACMO2/ANT) for the period 1980 to 2004.
Journal ArticleDOI

The role of albedo and accumulation in the 2010 melting record in Greenland

TL;DR: In 2010, remote sensing data, surface observations and output from a regional atmosphere model point to new records in 2010 for surface melt and albedo, runoff, the number of days when bare ice is exposed and surface mass balance of the Greenland ice sheet, especially over its west and southwest regions as discussed by the authors.
