• Uncertainties in projected surface mass balance over the polar ice sheets from dynamically downscaled EC-Earth models.

  Authors:Fredrik Boberg, Ruth Mottram, Nicolaj Hansen, Shuting Yang, and Peter L. LangenFrom:The Cryosphere (Vol. 16, Issue 1) Peer-Reviewed

  Jan. 4, 2022340 words Brief article The future rates of ice sheet melt in Greenland and Antarctica are an important factor when making estimates of the likely rate of sea level rise. Global climate models that took part in the fifth Coupled Model...

• Greenland ice sheet mass balance from 1840 through next week.

  Authors:Kenneth D. Mankoff, Xavier Fettweis, Peter L. Langen, Martin Stendel, Kristian K. Kjeldsen, Nanna B. Karlsson, et al.From:Earth System Science Data (Vol. 13, Issue 10) Peer-Reviewed

  Oct. 29, 2021292 words Brief article The mass of the Greenland ice sheet is declining as mass gain from snow accumulation is exceeded by mass loss from surface meltwater runoff, marine-terminating glacier calving and submarine melting, and basal melting....

• Downscaled surface mass balance in Antarctica: impacts of subsurface processes and large-scale atmospheric circulation.

  Authors:Nicolaj Hansen, Peter L. Langen, Fredrik Boberg, Rene Forsberg, Sebastian B. Simonsen, Peter Thejll, et al.From:The Cryosphere (Vol. 15, Issue 9) Peer-Reviewed

  Sept. 8, 2021386 words Brief article Antarctic surface mass balance (SMB) is largely determined by precipitation over the continent and subject to regional climate variability related to the Southern Annular Mode (SAM) and other climatic drivers at the...

• Greenland during the last interglacial: the relative importance of insolation and oceanic changes

  Authors:Rasmus A. Pedersen, Peter L. Langen, and Bo M. VintherFrom:Climate of the Past (Vol. 12, Issue 9) Peer-Reviewed

  Sept. 26, 2016306 words Brief article Insolation changes during the Eemian (the last interglacial period, 129 000--116 000 years before present) resulted in warmer than present conditions in the Arctic region....

• GrSMBMIP: intercomparison of the modelled 1980-2012 surface mass balance over the Greenland Ice Sheet.

  Authors:Xavier Fettweis, Stefan Hofer, Uta Krebs-Kanzow, Charles Amory, Teruo Aoki, Constantijn J. Berends, et al.From:The Cryosphere (Vol. 14, Issue 11) Peer-Reviewed

  Nov. 11, 2020390 words Brief article 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...

• Towards quantifying the glacial runoff signal in the freshwater input to Tyrolerfjord--Young Sound, NE Greenland

  Authors:Michele Citterio, Mikael K. Sejr, Peter L. Langen, Ruth H. Mottram, Jakob Abermann, Signe Hillerup Larsen, et al.From:Ambio (Vol. 46, Issue 1) Peer-Reviewed

• Present and future aerosol impacts on Arctic climate change in the GISS-E2.1 Earth system model.

  Authors:Ulas Im, Kostas Tsigaridis, Gregory Faluvegi, Peter L. Langen, Joshua P. French, Rashed Mahmood, et al.From:Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics (Vol. 21, Issue 13) Peer-Reviewed

  July 9, 2021540 words Article The Arctic is warming 2 to 3 times faster than the global average, partly due to changes in short-lived climate forcers (SLCFs) including aerosols. In order to study the effects of atmospheric aerosols in this warming,...

• The firn meltwater Retention Model Intercomparison Project (RetMIP): evaluation of nine firn models at four weather station sites on the Greenland ice sheet.

  Authors:Baptiste Vandecrux, Ruth Mottram, Peter L. Langen, Robert S. Fausto, Martin Olesen, C. Max Stevens, et al.From:The Cryosphere (Vol. 14, Issue 11) Peer-Reviewed

  Nov. 6, 2020358 words Brief article Perennial snow, or firn, covers 80 % of the Greenland ice sheet and has the capacity to retain surface meltwater, influencing the ice sheet mass balance and contribution to sea-level rise. Multilayer firn models are...

• Direct measurements of meltwater runoff on the Greenland ice sheet surface

  Authors:Laurence C. Smith, Kang Yang, Lincoln H. Pitcher, Brandon T. Overstreet, Vena W. Chu, Asa K. Rennermalm, et al.From:Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States (Vol. 114, Issue 50) Peer-Reviewed
