The FirnMelt project studies the Greenland Ice Sheet's response to surface melting, focusing on the firn layer's dynamics. By developing advanced models to simulate melting firn, the project aims to assess its impact on ice sheet mass balance and sea level rise.
TheThe FirnMelt ERC Synergy project focuses on the Greenland Ice Sheet’s reaction to surface melting across its vast firn plateau, currently covering almost 90 % of its surface.
Firn is the up to 100 metres thick, porous near-surface layer of compressed snow.
Most of Greenland’s firn plateau experienced only occasional melt in the past but ever rising temperatures increase melting and it is uncertain how much of the melt refreezes or runs off.
Current state-of-the-art firn models were built on t…
