摘要:During the past decades, the Greenland ice sheet has experienced a marked increase in mass loss resulting in an increasedcontribution to global sea-level rise. Te three largest outletglaciers in Greenland have increased their discharge, accelerated, thinned and retreated between 1996 and 2005. Afer2005 most of them have slowed down again although notto previous levels. Geodetic observations suggest that rapidincrease in mass loss from the north-western part of the icesheet occurred during 2005–2010 (Kjeldsen et al. 2013).
