The IPCC AR6 Synthesis Report made it clear that glaciers are losing ice worldwide, even in high altitude regions where they were previously stable. Most glacier regions have even passed “peak water,” where melt was at its highest; and snowpack also is decreasing in important watersheds, such as the North American West. This session from COP26 in Glasgow provided an overview of current losses and future projections for the world’s glaciers and snowpack, as well as the impact of these losses on future water resources. Dr. Regine Hock is an IPCC Coordinating Lead Author (SROCC) and Professor at the University of Oslo and the University of Alaska.
