The Glacier Mass Balance Intercomparison Exercise (GlaMBIE) recently published “Community estimate of global glacier mass changes from 2000 to 2023” in Nature.
The article is a result of the GlaMBIE team’s efforts to collect, homogenize and combine regional results from relevant observation methods to yield a global assessment towards the upcoming IPCC reports of the seventh assessment cycle. At the same time, GlaMBIE provides insights into regional trends and inter-annual variabilities, quantifies the differences among observation methods, tracks observations within the range of projections, and delivers a refined observational baseline for future impact and modelling studies.
CliC is pleased to contribute to GlaMBIE’s work as a member of their Stakeholder Board.
