#ESA and #NASA satellites deliver first joint picture of #Greenland Ice Sheet melting

#GlobalWarming is causing the Ice Sheet to melt and flow more rapidly, raising sea levels and disturbing weather patterns across our planet. Precise measurements of its changing shape are of critical importance.
Scientists have now delivered the first measurements of Greenland Ice Sheet thickness change using #CryoSat2 and #ICESat2
