🧊 How stable is Greenland’s ice sheet? New #MPIM research reveals 4️⃣ different steady states of the Greenland #IceSheet under a pre-industrial climate. Using a novel fully-coupled Earth System-Ice Sheet Model, Malena Andernach et al. found a critical threshold of 70-83% of pre-industrial ice volume, below which 50-80% of its current volume would be irreversibly lost even if returning to pre-industrial CO2 concentrations.
