23 sie 2023 · The Greenland ice sheet's mass has rapidly declined in the last several years due to surface melting and iceberg calving. Research based on satellite data indicates that between 2002 and 2023, Greenland shed an average of 270 billion metric tons of ice per year, adding to global sea level rise.

25 mar 2021 · March 25, 2021. The Greenland ice sheet's mass has rapidly declined in the last several years due to surface melting and iceberg calving. Research based on satellite data indicates that between 2002 and 2020, Greenland shed 279 billion metric tons of ice per year, adding to global sea level rise.
A new time-lapse video shows arctic ice melting off the coast of Greenland, with just 5% of the original mass remaining. The oldest and thickest ice has been replaced by thinner ice, which melts more easily. Researchers say climate change is to blame for continued loss.
17 sty 2024 · Icebergs have tumbled from Greenland’s glaciers for thousands of years as part of a natural cycle that typically balanced glacier growth in the winter with melting and retreat in the summer. The new study finds that ice retreat has far outpaced growth throughout the 21st century.
10 gru 2019 · Over Greenland, different satellite records show a speed-up of glacial retreat starting in 2000, as well as meltwater ponds spreading to higher elevations in the last decade, which could potentially speed up ice flow. And in Antarctic ice shelves, the view from space could reveal lakes hidden beneath the winter snow.
