[CRYOLIST] Melting in Greenland in 2011

[Marco Tedesco]

Update on the 2011 melting in Greenland

  Dear colleagues,


  we are posting here

http://greenland2011.cryocity.org

preliminary results concerning melting over the Greenland ice sheet in  
2011 from satellites observations and model output. The methodology is  
the same described in previous papers (e.g., Tedesco et al., 2011, see http://bit.ly/pAZpxY 
  ) applied to 2011.

We have decided to post it on the web to make it available to those  
curious what is happening in 2011. Contact me in case you would like  
to obtain the data used in the plots and maps.

A more detailed analysis including MODIS, surface observations and  
other data sets will be released with the Artcic Report Card out late  
October, see http://www.arctic.noaa.gov/reportcard/

Sincerely,

Marco Tedesco, Xavier Fettweis, Thomas Mote, Nicholas Steiner and  
Jason Box
