Sea-level rise due to polar ice-sheet mass loss during past warm periods
BACKGROUND Although thermal expansion of seawater and melting of mountain glaciers
have dominated global mean sea level (GMSL) rise over the last century, mass loss from the …

Mass balance of the Greenland Ice Sheet from 1992 to 2018
Nature, 2020 - nature.com
Abstract The Greenland Ice Sheet has been a major contributor to global sea-level rise in
recent decades,, and it is expected to continue to be so. Although increases in glacier flow …

Accelerating changes in ice mass within Greenland, and the ice sheet's sensitivity to atmospheric forcing
From early 2003 to mid-2013, the total mass of ice in Greenland declined at a progressively
increasing rate. In mid-2013, an abrupt reversal occurred, and very little net ice loss …

Rate of mass loss from the Greenland Ice Sheet will exceed Holocene values this century
Abstract The Greenland Ice Sheet (GIS) is losing mass at a high rate 1. Given the short-term
nature of the observational record, it is difficult to assess the historical importance of this …

Greenland‐wide seasonal temperatures during the last deglaciation
The sensitivity of the Greenland ice sheet to climate forcing is of key importance in assessing
its contribution to past and future sea level rise. Surface mass loss occurs during summer …

Drivers of Holocene sea-level change in the Caribbean
We present a Holocene relative sea-level (RSL) database for the Caribbean region (5° N to
25° N and 55° W to 90° W) that consists of 499 sea-level index points and 238 limiting dates …
