Greenland Ice sheet [in "State of the Climate in 2019"]
peer reviewed The Greenland ice sheet (GrIS) sits atop the largest island in the world and contains the equivalent of 7.4 m of global mean sea level rise (Morlighem et al. 2017). While the GrIS was likely in balance (i.e., ice mass gain was balancing ice mass loss) during the 1970s, 1980s, and early...
