Accelerated Volume Loss in Glacier Ablation Zones of NE Greenland, Little Ice Age to Present

Accelerated Volume Loss in Glacier Ablation Zones of NE Greenland, Little Ice Age to Present

Abstract Mountain glaciers at the periphery of the Greenland ice sheet are a crucial freshwater and sediment source to the North Atlantic and strongly impact Arctic terrestrial, fjord, and coastal biogeochemical cycles. In this study we mapped the extent of 1,848 mountain glaciers in NE Greenland at...
