text: However, if the mass balance of a significant portion of the accumulation zone of the glacier is negative, it is in disequilibrium with the local climate.
text: It appears that the net balance of the grounded portion of the Antarctic Ice Sheet is positive, while that of the floating ice shelves is negative.
text: If accumulation is greater than ablation, the glacier has a positive mass balance mass balance: the difference between accumulation and ablation.
text: If ablation outpaces accumulation, mass balance is negative and a glacier shrinks.
text: The mass balance of Greenland has been increasingly negative since 1995, and it is now equivalent to the global contribution to sea level rise from glaciers and ice caps (Figure 2).
text: If the mass balance of a glacier is negative, the glacier will shrink and recede.
text: The mass balance in 2003 was very negative at -3.03 m. The winter mass balance measured in early May was 2.26 m with a summer balance of -5.29 m. Glacier runoff during the melt season of 2003 from Ålfotbreen is the product of its area at that time
text: The regional balance is negative.
text: According to the 2012 State of the Climate Report, glacier mass balance in 2011 (the most recent year for which worldwide analysis is complete) was negative, with combined ice loss equivalent to 766 millimeters of water.
text: If the mass balance of a glacier is positive, the glacier will advance.
text: Mass balance is said to be positive when there is a net gain of ice mass and negative when there is a net loss.
