Glacier algae accelerate melt rates on the south-western Greenland Ice Sheet
Cook, Joseph M.; Tedstone, Andrew J.; Williamson, Christopher; McCutcheon, Jenine; Hodson, Andrew J.; Dayal, Archana; Skiles, McKenzie; Hofer, Stefan; Bryant, Robert; McAree, Owen; McGonigle, Andrew; Ryan, Jonathan; Anesio, Alexandre M.; Irvine-Fynn, Tristram D.L.; Hubbard, Alun Lloyd; Hanna, Edward; Flanner, Mark; Mayanna, Sathish; Benning, Liane G.; van As, Dirk; Yallop, Marian; McQuaid, James B.; Gribbin, Thomas; Tranter, Martyn (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Melting of the Greenland Ice Sheet (GrIS) is the largest single contributor to eustatic sea level and is amplified by the growth of pigmented algae on the ice surface, which increases solar radiation absorption. This ... -
Greenland surface air temperature changes from 1981 to 2019 and implications for ice-sheet melt and mass-balance change
Hanna, Edward; Cappelen, John; Fettweis, Xavier; Mernild, Jacob Sebastian Haugaard; Mote, Thomas L.; Mottram, Ruth; Steffen, Konrad; Ballinger, Thomas J.; Hall, Richard J. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)We provide an updated analysis of instrumental Greenland monthly temperature data to 2019, focusing mainly on coastal stations but also analysing ice‐sheet records from Swiss Camp and Summit. Significant summer (winter) ... -
GrSMBMIP: intercomparison of the modelled 1980-2012 surface mass balance over the Greenland Ice Sheet
Fettweis, Xavier; Hofer, Stefan; Krebs-Kanzow, Uta; Amory, Charles; Aoki, Teruo; Berends, Constantijn J.; Born, Andreas; Box, Jason E.; Delhasse, Alison; Fujita, Koji; Gierz, Paul; Goelzer, Heiko; Hanna, Edward; Hashimoto, Akihiro; Huybrechts, Philippe; Kapsch, Marie-Luise; King, Michaela D.; Kittel, Christoph; Lang, Charlotte; Langen, Peter L.; Lenaerts, Jan T.M.; Liston, Glen E.; Lohmann, Gerrit; Mernild, Jacob Sebastian Haugaard; Mikolajewicz, Uwe; Modali, Kameswarrao; Mottram, Ruth H.; Niwano, Masashi; Noël, Brice; Ryan, Jonathan C.; Smith, Amy; Streffing, Jan; Tedesco, Marco; Van de Berg, Willem Jan; Van den Broeke, Michiel; Van de Wal, Rodecrick S.; Von Kampenhout, Leo; Wilton, David; Wouters, Bert; Ziemen, Florian; Zolles, Tobias (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Observations and models agree that the Greenland Ice Sheet (GrIS) surface mass balance (SMB) has decreased since the end of the 1990s due to an increase in meltwater runoff and that this trend will accelerate in the future. ... -
Surface air temperature fluctuations and lapse rates on Olivares Gamma Glacier, Rio Olivares basin, central Chile, from a novel meteorological sensor network
Hanna, Edward; Mernild, Jacob Sebastian Haugaard; Yde, Jacob Clement; De Villiers, Simon Daniel (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Empirically based studies of glacier meteorology, especially for the Southern Hemisphere, are relatively sparse in the literature. Here, we use an innovative network of highly portable, low-cost thermometers to report on ... -
Temporal Variability of Surface Reflectance Supersedes Spatial Resolution in Defining Greenland’s Bare-Ice Albedo
Irvine-Fynn, Tristram D. L.; Bunting, Peter S.; Cook, Joseph M.; Hubbard, Alun; Barrand, Nicholas E.; Hanna, Edward; Hardy, Andy J.; Hodson, Andrew J.; Holt, Tom O.; Huss, Matthias; McQuaid, James B.; Nilsson, Johan; Naegeli, Kathrin; Roberts, Osian; Ryan, Jonathan C.; Tedstone, Andrew J.; Tranter, Martyn; Williamson, Christopher J. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Ice surface albedo is a primary modulator of melt and runoff, yet our understanding of how reflectance varies over time across the Greenland Ice Sheet remains poor. This is due to a disconnect between point or transect ...
