A Systematic, Regional Assessment of High Mountain Asia Glacier Mass Balance

David Shean, Shashank Bhushan, Paul Montesano et al. · 30 Jan 2020

High-mountain Asia (HMA) constitutes the largest glacierized region outside of the Earth's polar regions. Although available observations are limited, long-term records indicate sustained HMA glacier mass loss since ~1850, with accelerated loss in recent decades. Recent satellite data capture the spatial variability of this mass loss, but spatial resolution is coarse and some estimates for…

A new model for global glacier change and sea-level rise

Matthias Huss, Regine Hock · 30 Sep 2015

The anticipated retreat of glaciers around the globe will pose far-reaching challenges to the management of fresh water resources and significantly contribute to sea-level rise within the coming decades. Here, we present a new model for calculating the 21st century mass changes of all glaciers on Earth outside the ice sheets. The Global Glacier Evolution…

The Copernicus Global 1/12° Oceanic and Sea Ice GLORYS12 Reanalysis

Lellouche Jean-Michel, Greiner Eric, Bourdallé-Badie Romain et al. · 21 Jul 2021

GLORYS12 is a global eddy-resolving physical ocean and sea ice reanalysis at 1/12° horizontal resolution covering the 1993-present altimetry period, designed and implemented in the framework of the Copernicus Marine Environment Monitoring Service (CMEMS). The model component is the NEMO platform driven at the surface by atmospheric conditions from the ECMWF ERA-Interim reanalysis. Ocean observations…

Citizen science in hydrology and water resources: opportunities for knowledge generation, ecosystem service management, and sustainable development

Wouter Buytaert, Zed Zulkafli, Sam Grainger et al. · 22 Oct 2014

The participation of the general public in the research design, data collection and interpretation process together with scientists is often referred to as citizen science. While citizen science itself has existed since the start of scientific practice, developments in sensing technology, data processing and visualisation, and communication of ideas and results, are creating a wide…

Changes in Climate and Land Use Over the Amazon Region: Current and Future Variability and Trends

José A. Marengo, Carlos Souza, Kirsten Thonicke et al. · 21 Dec 2018

This paper shows recent progress in our understanding of climate variability and trends in the Amazon region, and how these interact with land use change. The review includes an overview of up-to-date information on climate and hydrological variability, and on warming trends in Amazonia, which reached 0.6-0.7 °C over the last 40 years, with 2016…
