Imbalance and accelerated loss of glaciers in South America and the Antarctic Peninsula
The majority of glaciers and ice caps (GIC) are out of balance with present day climate conditions. In order to return to equilibrium, these GIC must lose mass and retreat to higher elevations. Here, we present mass balance and accumulation-area ratio (AA
