TL;DR: In this article, the authors present an update of the "key points" from the Antarctic Climate Change and the Environment (ACCE) report that was published by the Scientific Committee on Antarctic Research (SCAR) in 2009.

Melt in Antarctica derived from Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity (SMOS) observations at L band
Marion Leduc-Leballeur,Marion Leduc-Leballeur,Ghislain Picard,Giovanni Macelloni,Arnaud Mialon,Yann Kerr +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors derived the L-band observations from the Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity (SMOS) satellite between the austral summer 2010-2011 and 2017-2018.

Comparisons of snowmelt detected by microwave sensors on the Shackleton Ice Shelf, East Antarctica
Lei Zheng,Chunxia Zhou +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, two new microwave sensors, including radiometer and scatterometer, are used to map snowmelt, which is of great importance to the ice sheet's mass and energy balance.

Enhanced winter snowmelt in the Antarctic Peninsula: Automatic snowmelt identification from radar scatterometer
TL;DR: In this article, an automatic snowmelt identification algorithm based on Quick Scatterometer and Advanced Scatterometers was proposed to detect weak melt signals with a wavelet denoising procedure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Recent changes in pan-Antarctic region surface snowmelt detected by AMSR-E and AMSR2
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the spatial and temporal variations of the surface snowmelt over the entire pan-Antarctic as a whole from 2002 to 2017 by using the passive microwave remote sensing data.

TL;DR: ERA-Interim as discussed by the authors is the latest global atmospheric reanalysis produced by the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF), which will extend back to the early part of the twentieth century.

Recent Rapid Regional Climate Warming on the Antarctic Peninsula
David G. Vaughan,Gareth J. Marshall,William M. Connolley,Claire L. Parkinson,Robert Mulvaney,Dominic A. Hodgson,John C. King,Carol J. Pudsey,John Turner +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss the significance of rapid regional (RRR) warming in one area, the Antarctic Peninsula, and discuss several possible candidate mechanisms: changing oceanographic or changing atmospheric circulation, or a regional air-sea-ice feedback amplifying greenhouse warming.

Ice-Shelf Melting Around Antarctica
TL;DR: Detailed glaciological estimates of ice-shelf melting around the entire continent of Antarctica show that basal melting accounts for as much mass loss as does calving, making ice- shelf melting the largest ablation process in Antarctica.

Retreating glacier fronts on the Antarctic Peninsula over the past half-century.
Alison J. Cook,Alison J. Cook,Adrian J. Fox,Adrian J. Fox,David G. Vaughan,David G. Vaughan,Jane G. Ferrigno,Jane G. Ferrigno +7 more
TL;DR: The continued retreat of ice shelves on the Antarctic Peninsula has been widely attributed to recent atmospheric warming, but there has been little published work describing changes in glacier margin positions as discussed by the authors, which suggests that this may not be the sole driver of glacier retreat in this region.

Factors affecting the detection of trends: Statistical considerations and applications to environmental data

TL;DR: In this article, the authors provided formulae for estimating the number of years necessary to detect trends, along with the estimates of the impact of interventions on trend detection, and the uncertainty associated with these estimates is also explored.
