Holocene evolution of the western Greenland Ice Sheet: Assessing geophysical ice-sheet models with geological reconstructions of ice-margin change

NE Young, JP Briner - Quaternary Science Reviews, 2015 - Elsevier
Geophysical ice-sheet models are used to predict future ice-sheet dimensions and, in turn,
these projections help estimate the magnitude of eustatic sea-level rise. Before models can …

The sensitivity of the Greenland ice sheet to climate forcing is of key importance in assessing
its contribution to past and future sea level rise. Surface mass loss occurs during summer …

Instability of the Northeast Greenland Ice Stream over the last 45,000 years

NK Larsen, LB Levy, AE Carlson, C Buizert… - Nature …, 2018 - nature.com
The sensitivity of the Northeast Greenland Ice Stream (NEGIS) to prolonged warm periods is

The response of the southern Greenland ice sheet to the Holocene thermal maximum

NK Larsen, KH Kjær, B Lecavalier, AA Bjørk… - …, 2015 - pubs.geoscienceworld.org
To determine the long-term sensitivity of the Greenland ice sheet to a warmer climate, we

[HTML][HTML] Linkages between ocean circulation and the Northeast Greenland Ice Stream in the Early Holocene

J Davies, AM Mathiasen, K Kristiansen… - Quaternary Science …, 2022 - Elsevier
The melting of marine terminating glaciers in Northeast Greenland is a visible sign that our
climate is changing. This melt has been partly attributed to changes in oceanic heat fluxes …
