Mass Balance and Velocity Data for Greenland Ice Sheet at High Elevations

Published: September 17, 2021

This is an estimation of mass balance of the Greenland Ice Sheet at higher elevations, computed as the difference between the estimated annual total snow accumulation and ice discharge. Measurements are taken at 161 stations located 30 km apart, at 2000 m elevation that circumnavigates Greenland. Ice velocities are…

Greenland Surface Strain Rates & Stresses

Published: September 15, 2021

These datasets are 2D principal strain rates and principal stresses across the surface of the Greenland Ice Sheet. We started with representative surface velocities over a 20-year period (Joughin et al., 2016). We smoothed the velocities with a 1 km × 1 km boxcar filter, which carries through many…
