,Greenland melting
Since 2000, Greenland’s ice sheet has decreased dramatically. Satellite observations and atmospheric models have confirmed these findings independently. TU Delft researchers Ernst Schrama and Bert Wouters made significant contributions to these findings by analysing data from the gravity satellite mission GRACE (Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment). The study’s findings were published in Science on 13 November.
