Show moreThe U.S. CLIVAR GRISO Working Group concludes that ice-ocean-atmosphere interactions in Greenland represent a new research frontier that is critical to understanding glacier evolution and ice sheet mass balance. Recent observed changes in Greenland show that these processes are important in the context of decadal-to-centennial climate variability. A synthesis of the science and a detailed set of recommendations are provided in this white paper. Show less
