Modelling snow accumulation on Greenland in Eemian, glacial inception, and modern climates in a GCM

Changing climate conditions on Greenland influence the snow accumulation rate and surface mass balance (SMB) on the ice sheet and, ultimately, its shape. This can in turn affect local climate via orography and albedo variations and, potentially, remote areas via changes in ocean circulation trig...
