thrw567··on Greenland is melting
Fair enough. It would also be useful to know that 200 GT/year translates into 0.01% per year. Or 1% per century. It's indeed a long term process.

I did skip the article considering it's New Yorker article (i.e. very long). The title is however "Greenland is melting", and the link provided by the gp shows that year to date (from 1-Sep to today), Greenland has acquired more surface ice mass than 2 standard deviations above the mean historical rate (over the last 24 years). So, no, Greenland is not melting.
