@peteirvine @xavierfettweis @DrHofHof @RolandSeferian Thx again to all the team for this work. It may be wise recalling that the long-term effects and costs of implementing solar geo have not been addressed in this study and that these results may not in any case serve as an argument not to care about reducing our carbon emissions

See how well MAR is reproducing drifting snow with its updated version: https://t.co/c6yFNqMukJ
Thanks mates @c2kittel @LouisLeToumelin @xavierfettweis @cecileagosta
@FavierVinceIGE and others for the productive teamwork.
Wider applications of this model version to come soon!

1/4 @ClimatoULiege has now robust results (MAR forced by ERA5) to confirm that the 2019-2020 melt season over Antarctica has been the highest from 1979 (~ 2 x > the normal). The highest anomalies occurred over Peninsula while the summer was warmer over most of Antarctica.

[Xavier Fettweis @xavierfettweis]

Just to give you an idea of the current trend of the surface melt over Antarctica simulated by MAR forced by the reanalysis ERA5 and the likely estimate (using MAR-GFS) for the 2019-2020 summer (that however needs to be confirmed when the reanalysis ERA5 will be available).
