| Zusammenfassung |
| Recent estimates of the contribution of glaciers to sea-level rise during the
20th century are strongly divergent. Advances in data availability have
allowed revisions of some of these published estimates. Here we show that
outside of Antarctica, the global estimates of glacier mass change obtained
from glacier-length-based reconstructions and from a glacier model driven by
gridded climate observations are now consistent with each other, and also
with an estimate for the years 2003–2009 that is mostly based on remotely
sensed data. This consistency is found throughout the entire common periods
of the respective data sets. Inconsistencies of reconstructions and
observations persist in estimates on regional scales. |
