Frostbyte G Tanski: Permafrost carbon degradation at the land-ocean-interface

This FrostByte was created by George Tanski from the Alfred Wegener Institute Helmholtz Centre for Polar and Marine Research, for ICARP conference, part of Arctic Science Summit Week, held in Toyama, Japan 21 - 30 April, 2015.

This Frostbyte gives an overview about my current studies on permafrost carbon and its degradation along Arctic coasts, especially in Canada. It gives an overview of the scope of my current project and the objectives of my PhD in general.

FrostByte X Fettweis: Modeling of the Greenland ice sheet surface mass balance with the regional MAR model

This FrostByte was created by Xavier Fettweis, from University of Liège (Belgium), for the Constraining uncertainty in Greenland Ice Sheet surface mass balance model output and in situ validation workshop, held 19-20 May 2015, in Sheffield, UK.
This FrostByte shows that the Greenland ice sheet contribution to sea level changes is a drop over the 20th century and a rise during the 21st century.
