Elevation change of the Antarctic Ice Sheet: 1985 to 2020

J Nilsson, A Gardner, F Paolo - Earth System Science Data …, 2021 - essd.copernicus.org
The largest uncertainty in future projections of sea level change comes from the uncertain
response of the Antarctic Ice Sheet to the warming oceans and atmosphere. The ice sheet …

Spatial and temporal Antarctic Ice Sheet mass trends, glacio‐isostatic adjustment, and surface processes from a joint inversion of satellite altimeter, gravity, and GPS …

A Martín‐Español, A Zammit‐Mangion… - Journal of …, 2016 - Wiley Online Library
We present spatiotemporal mass balance trends for the Antarctic Ice Sheet from a statistical

Trends in Antarctic Ice Sheet elevation and mass

A Shepherd, L Gilbert, AS Muir… - Geophysical …, 2019 - Wiley Online Library
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 …

Atmospheric river precipitation contributed to rapid increases in surface height of the west Antarctic ice sheet in 2019

S Adusumilli, MA Fish, HA Fricker… - Geophysical Research …, 2021 - Wiley Online Library
Estimating the relative contributions of the atmospheric and dynamic components of ice‐
sheet mass balance is critical for improving projections of future sea level rise. Existing …

Thirty years of elevation change on Antarctic Peninsula ice shelves from multimission satellite radar altimetry

HA Fricker, L Padman - Journal of Geophysical Research …, 2012 - Wiley Online Library
We use data acquired between 1978 and 2008 by four satellite radar altimeter missions
(Seasat, ERS‐1, ERS‐2 and Envisat) to determine multidecadal elevation change rates …

Elevation and elevation change of Greenland and Antarctica derived from CryoSat-2

V Helm, A Humbert, H Miller - The Cryosphere, 2014 - tc.copernicus.org
This study focuses on the present-day surface elevation of the Greenland and Antarctic ice
sheets. Based on 3 years of CryoSat-2 data acquisition we derived new elevation models …

Increased ice losses from Antarctica detected by CryoSat‐2

M McMillan, A Shepherd, A Sundal… - Geophysical …, 2014 - Wiley Online Library
We use 3 years of Cryosat‐2 radar altimeter data to develop the first comprehensive
assessment of Antarctic ice sheet elevation change. This new data set provides near …

Multi‐decadal glacier surface lowering in the Antarctic Peninsula

M Kunz, MA King, JP Mills, PE Miller… - Geophysical …, 2012 - Wiley Online Library
From approximately 400 glaciers of the western Antarctic Peninsula, no in situ records of
mass balance exist and their recent contribution to sea level is consequently poorly …

Elevation change of the Antarctic ice sheet, 1995-2000, from ERS-2 satellite radar altimetry

CH Davis, AC Ferguson - IEEE Transactions on Geoscience …, 2004 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
