Improving projections of sea level contribution from the Greenland ice sheet by modeling calving dynamics

The contribution of the Greenland ice sheet to global sea-level rise has increased rapidly during the last two decades and is currently ∼ 0.8 mm/year. As observations show a clear, accelerating increasing trend in both global temperature and ice mass loss from the Greenland ice sheet, how much mass...
