Glaciers may be melting much faster than we think. A team of researchers has developed a more realistic model to predict glacier ice loss. Many existing models make predictions based on monthly weather data and therefore do not sufficiently account for daily fluctuations in weather conditions. The new model by the Swiss and Belgian researchers also looks at […] More science? Read the latest articles on Scientias.nl.

Daily weather extremes in glacier models reveal greater ice loss and faster sea-level rise
Running a global glacier model at daily rather than monthly resolution across more than 12,500 glaciers reproduces observed mass loss better and projects a 5 to 10 per cent larger glacier contribution to 21st-century sea-level rise.
