Global glacier mass change in 2025 - Nature Reviews Earth & Environment

Glaciers lost 408 Β± 132 Gt of mass during the hydrological year 2025, equivalent to 1.1 Β± 0.4 mm sea-level rise. Since 1975, glacier mass loss has totalled 9,583 Β± 1,211 Gt, equivalent to 26.4 Β± 3.3 mm of sea-level rise, with six of the highest mass-loss years on record occurring in the past seven years.

@dottir @Ruth_Mottram I went to grad school with Mauri. He is a great guy and a great XC skier!
