Western Greenland ice sheet retreat history reveals elevated precipitation during the Holocene thermal maximum
<p>We investigate changing precipitation patterns in the Kangerlussuaq region of western central Greenland during the Holocene thermal maximum (HTM), using a new chronology of ice sheet terminus position through the Holocene and a novel inverse modeling approach based on the unscented transfor...
