In the Cryosphere Research Group at DTU Space, we monitor the recent and ongoing changes of the ice-covered regions of the Earth, including ice sheets and sea ice, using observations from satellites, aircraft and ground. During the past decades, satellites have observed a decline in sea ice and an increased mass loss of the Greenland ice sheet. Our research leads to an increasingly accurate understanding of these rapid changes, thus enabling society to mitigate climate change.

Study says small editor group handled many problematic manuscripts — and a Nature investigation finds out who they are.

Scientific Reports - Novel insight into the spatiotemporal distribution of Greenland ice sheet surface densities from eleven years of satellite radar altimetry

Abstract. Surface roughness is an important factor to consider when modelling mass changes at the Greenland Ice Sheet (GrIS) surface (i.e., surface mass balance, SMB). This is because it can have impo...
