Ice-Mass changes in the Antarctic 2002-2023

Показать описание
Ice loss in Antarctica between 2002 and 2023, as mass loss per square metre, determined by the GRACE and GRACE-FO satellite missions. The total mass loss was around 224 gigatonnes (= billion tonnes) of ice per year. One gigaton of water fills a cube with an edge length of one kilometer. GRACE (Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment, 2002-2017) and its successor GRACE-FO (GRACE Follow-On, since 2018) observe the Earth's time-variable gravitational field. This allows mass changes to be monitored, such as the loss of ice mass in Antarctica.
