| 英文摘要 | Ice loss from the Greenland ice sheet is one of the largest sources of contemporary sea-level rise (SLR). While process-based models place timescales on Greenland's deglaciation, their confidence is obscured by model shortcomings including imprecise atmospheric and oceanic couplings. Here, we present a complementary approach resolving ice sheet disequilibrium with climate constrained by satellite-derived bare-ice extent, tidewater sector ice flow discharge and surface mass balance data. We find that Greenland ice imbalance with the recent (2000-2019) climate commits at least 274 +/- 68 mm SLR from 59 +/- 15 x 10(3) km(2) ice retreat, equivalent to 3.3 +/- 0.9% volume loss, regardless of twenty-first-century climate pathways. This is a result of increasing mass turnover from precipitation, ice flow discharge and meltwater run-off. The high-melt year of 2012 applied in perpetuity yields an ice loss commitment of 782 +/- 135 mm SLR, serving as an ominous prognosis for Greenland's trajectory through a twenty-first century of warming. Greenland ice sheet melt is currently the largest single contributor to sea-level rise. This work combines observations and theory to show that Greenland ice sheet imbalance with recent climate (2000-2019) has already committed at least 3.3% ice volume loss, equivalent to 274 mm of global sea-level rise. |
