Over the modern satellite era, substantial climatic changes have been observed in the
Antarctic, including atmospheric and oceanic warming, ice sheet thinning and a general …

Executive summary The 2015 Lancet Commission on Health and Climate Change has been
formed to map out the impacts of climate change, and the necessary policy responses, in …

Ocean-driven basal melting of Antarctica's floating ice shelves accounts for about half of
their mass loss in steady state, where gains in ice-shelf mass are balanced by losses. Ice …

Abstract The Antarctic Ice Sheet is an important indicator of climate change and driver of sea-
level rise. Here we combine satellite observations of its changing volume, flow and …

Government policies currently commit us to surface warming of three to four degrees Celsius
above pre-industrial levels by 2100, which will lead to enhanced ice-sheet melt. Ice-sheet …

Ice discharge from large ice sheets plays a direct role in determining rates of sea-level rise.
We map present-day Antarctic-wide surface velocities using Landsat 7 and 8 imagery …

In 2018 we celebrated 25 years of development of radar altimetry, and the progress
achieved by this methodology in the fields of global and coastal oceanography, hydrology …

Since 1992, there has been a revolution in our ability to quantify the land ice contribution to
sea level rise using a variety of satellite missions and technologies. Each mission has …

Global mean sea level is an integral of changes occurring in the climate system in response
to unforced climate variability as well as natural and anthropogenic forcing factors. Its …

Abstract Fluctuations in Antarctic Ice Sheet elevation and mass occur over a variety of time
scales, owing to changes in snowfall and ice flow. Here we disentangle these signals by …
