In a context of global change and increasing anthropic pressure on the environment,
monitoring the Earth system and its evolution has become one of the key missions of …

Glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA) describes the response of the solid Earth, the gravitational
field, and the oceans to the growth and decay of the global ice sheets. A commonly studied …

This report was commissioned by the Norwegian Environment Agency in order to provide
basic information for use in climate change adaptation in Svalbard. It includes descriptions …

Since the first estimates of Svalbard-wide glacier mass balance were made in the early
2000s, there has been great progress in remote sensing and modeling of mass balance …

This review covers basic theory and techniques behind the use of ground-based gravimetry
at the Earth's surface. The orientation is toward modern instrumentation, data processing …

Estimating the long-term mass balance of the high-Arctic Svalbard archipelago is difficult
due to the incomplete geodetic and direct glaciological measurements, both in space and …

In this study we simulate the climatic mass balance of Svalbard glaciers with a coupled
atmosphere–glacier model with 3 km grid spacing, from September 2003 to September …

With the help of the regional climate model MAR (Modèle Atmosphérique Régional) forced
by the ERA-Interim reanalysis (MAR ERA) and the MIROC5 (Model for Interdisciplinary …

SUMMARY We analyse Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) data from Svalbard to
understand how uplift rates are controlled by the elastic and viscoelastic response of the …

Until relatively recently, it was assumed that Arctic ice masses would respond to
climatic/oceanic forcing over millennia, but observations made during the past two decades …
