COP-26 Cryosphere Pavilion Video of the Week: Greenland’s Future with Mark Serreze, NSIDC and Julie Brigham-Grette, University of Massachusetts Amherst

Over the coming weeks, the Cryosphere Capsules will feature videos of some of the best and most impactful side events that took place at the Cryosphere Pavilion during COP-26 in Glasgow. This week: what does the future hold for Greenland’s contribution to sea-level rise at low, versus high emissions? This Nov. 10 side event featured Dr. Mark Serreze, Director of the National Snow and Ice Data Center (NSIDC) at the University of Colorado, and Dr. Julie Brigham-Grette, former chair of the U.S. Polar Research Board, from the University of Massachusetts Amherst.
