Extreme weather and climate events in northern areas: A review
The greatest impacts of climate change on ecosystems, wildlife and humans often arise from
extreme events rather than changes in climatic means. Northern high latitudes, including the …

Assessing “dangerous climate change”: Required reduction of carbon emissions to protect young people, future generations and nature
We assess climate impacts of global warming using ongoing observations and paleoclimate
data. We use Earth's measured energy imbalance, paleoclimate data, and simple …

[HTML][HTML] Return to rapid ice loss in Greenland and record loss in 2019 detected by the GRACE-FO satellites
Abstract Between 2003-2016, the Greenland ice sheet (GrIS) was one of the largest
contributors to sea level rise, as it lost about 255 Gt of ice per year. This mass loss slowed in …

Ice melt, sea level rise and superstorms: evidence from paleoclimate data, climate modeling, and modern observations that 2 C global warming could be dangerous
We use numerical climate simulations, paleoclimate data, and modern observations to study
the effect of growing ice melt from Antarctica and Greenland. Meltwater tends to stabilize the …

On the recent contribution of the Greenland ice sheet to sea level change
We assess the recent contribution of the Greenland ice sheet (GrIS) to sea level change. We
use the mass budget method, which quantifies ice sheet mass balance (MB) as the …
