(author), Moholdt, G (author), Lenaerts, Jan T M (author), van den Broeke, Michiel R. (author)Melting of the Greenland ice sheet (GrIS) and its peripheral glaciers and ice caps (GICs) contributes about 43% to contemporary sea level rise. While patterns of GrIS mass loss are well studied, the spatial and temporal evolution of GICs mass loss and the acting processes have remained unclear. Here we use a novel, 1 km surface mass balance...journal article 2017

A daily, 1 km resolution data set of downscaled Greenland ice sheet surface mass balance (1958–2015)Noël, Brice (author), van de Berg, Willem Jan (author), Machguth, Horst (author), Lhermitte, S.L.M. (author), Howat, Ian (author), Fettweis, Xavier (author), van den Broeke, Michiel R. (author)This study presents a data set of daily, 1 km resolution Greenland ice sheet (GrIS) surface mass balance (SMB) covering the period 1958–2015. Applying corrections for elevation, bare ice albedo and accumulation bias, the high-resolution product is statistically downscaled from the native daily output of the polar regional climate model RACMO2.3...journal article 2016
