Regional and global projections of twenty-first century glacier mass changes in response to climate scenarios from global climate models

V Radić, A Bliss, AC Beedlow, R Hock, E Miles… - Climate Dynamics, 2014 - Springer
A large component of present-day sea-level rise is due to the melt of glaciers other than the

Towards regional projections of twenty-first century sea-level change based on IPCC SRES scenarios

ABA Slangen, CA Katsman, RSW Van de Wal… - Climate dynamics, 2012 - Springer
Sea-level change is often considered to be globally uniform in sea-level projections.
However, local relative sea-level (RSL) change can deviate substantially from the global …
