boundary condition from the driving GCM. The RCAO model-output is from a pan-arctic
run for the years 1960–2080 at approx. 50 km resolution. The first 20 years of the model run
must be considered as spin-up time for the ocean module. The RCAO run is experimental
since the model is in a development state and the output has not yet been evaluated over

mass balance of three small ice caps (with areas from 15 to 80 km2) over 6 to
20 years, were efficiently estimated from maps of glacier elevation changes deduced by SPOT

• Accuracy of estimating the elevation changes, was greatly improved by using the highly precise
EMISAR DEM as a reference for co-registration and offset correction

Simplest case: change in mean climate,
with no change in the magnitude of variability
If variability changes as well, the two tails of the distribution
(e.g., warm and cold) will be affected differently.

Travellers can leave their travel plan with ICE-SAR, provided it includes a contact or relative whose responsibility is to alert ICE-SAR if the travellers do not arrive at the right time. ICE-SAR also provides a more extensive service with shared responsibility
