Title: GREENLAND ICE SHEET IS SHRINKING
Caption: This summer meltwater stream on the Greenland ice sheet illustrates that surface melting is one of several ways that ice is being lost from the large Greenland ice sheet. The ice sheet is also losing large amounts of ice through outflow glaciers shedding ice bergs into the ocean. (Photo by R. J. Braithwaite/ © American Association for the Advancement of Science)
