The melting of Greenland’s glaciers have increased fivefold in the past 20 years, a new study shows.
They are currently losing 25 meters (around 82 feet) every year. In the 80s and 90s, glaciers shrank by an average of about five meters a year.
Researchers say the finding eliminates any lingering doubts about the impact of climate change on Greenland’s more than 20,000 glaciers.
The study appears in Nature Climate Change.
The new study shows the response of Greenland’s glaciers to climate change over a 130-year period. The past two decades stand out in particular, as melting during this period increased even more dramatically.
A number of studies in recent years have shown that Greenland’s largest glaciers are under massive pressure due to climatic changes and rising temperatures. However, doubts remained about the extent of the melting glaciers, of which there are approx. 22,000 in Greenland, partly due to inadequate measurement methods.
