Peak refreezing in the Greenland firn layer under future warming scenarios

Greenland firn, the layer of compressed snow that today covers 90% of the ice sheet, currently retains half of the meltwater through refreezing. Here the authors use climate simulations to predict that refreezing in Greenland firn could peak at around 2130 and decline thereafter, rapidly increasing...
