text: As ice in a glacier is always moving forward, a glacier's terminus advances when less ice is lost due to melting and/or calving than the amount of yearly advance.
text: If less snow and ice are added than are lost, glaciers will retreat.
text: Thus, there are four ways that ice in the ice sheet may be lost: ablation (evaporation of the ice), surface melt, calving at the interface with the ocean, and melting from contact with the ocean.
text: An international team led by the University of Zurich in Switzerland used classical glaciological field observations combined with a wealth of information from various satellite missions to painstakingly calculate how much ice has been lost or gained by 19 different glacierised regions around the world.
text: It holds enough ice to raise the world ocean a little over 2 feet (65 centimeters) and backstops neighboring glaciers that would raise sea levels an additional 8 feet (2.4 meters) if all the ice were lost.

text: (Water equivalent is the depth of water that would result if the ice that was lost or gained were to melt and spread out evenly over the glacier’s surface area.)
