To do so, Dr. Michele Petrini of Norway's Bjerknes Centre for Climate Research and colleagues assessed the surface mass balance of Greenland's ice sheet, referencing the difference between snow ...

"It's a rare opportunity to directly link such an event to Greenland ice sheet surface mass balance and dynamics." The atmospheric river had pelted Svalbard with rain, but 2,000 kilometers (1,245 ...

For the first time, scientists have captured detailed measurements of water vapor high above Greenland’s vast ice sheet.

An intense atmospheric river event in 2022 was the focus of a study by a team of researchers from Nordic countries. They ...

is called “surface mass balance” and is the second process that removes ice mass from the Greenland Ice Sheet. Unfortunately, maintaining ice mass has been a losing battle for almost 3 decades. The ...
