Atmospheric river impacts on Greenland ice sheet surface mass balance

Greenland Ice Sheet (GrIS) mass loss has accelerated since the turn of the twenty-first century. Several recent episodes of rapid GrIS ablation coincided with intense moisture transport over Greenland by atmospheric rivers (ARs), suggesting that these events influence the evolution of GrIS surface m...
