"Rapid Ice Loss in Greenland Leading to New Island Formation"

Greenland's bedrock is rising due to the loss of ice from glaciers, with modern-day climate change exacerbating the long-term process of glacial isostatic rebound. Research using GPS monitors has found that glacial ice loss contributes significantly to the uplift of Greenland, with some areas experiencing nearly a third of the total vertical land motion due to ice loss. Understanding the rise of Greenland's bedrock provides complementary measurements to quantify the region's ice loss, aiding in more accurate estimates of sea level rise.
