Rising Oceans Guaranteed: Arctic Land Ice Loss and Sea Level Rise
Purpose of Review: This paper reviews sea level contributions from land ice across the Arctic, including Greenland. We summarize ice loss measurement methods, ice loss mechanisms, and recent observations and projections, and highlight research advances over the last 3–5 years and remaining scientifi...
