Present-day mass loss rates are a precursor for West Antarctic Ice Sheet collapse

<p>Observations of recent mass loss rates of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet (WAIS) raise concerns about its stability since a collapse would increase global sea levels by several meters. Future projections of these mass loss trends are often estimated using numerical ice sheet models, and recent...
