Mass Gains of the Antarctic Ice Sheet Exceed Losses
Jay Zwally

Abstract
During 2003 to 2008, the mass gain of the Antarctic ice sheet from snow accumulation exceeded the mass loss from ice discharge by 49 Gtlyr (2.5% of input), as derived from ICESat laser measurements of elevation change.

Ice Free Arctic Update

Top NASA experts predicted an ice-free Arctic for 2012, and it has happened. (Ice-free meaning twice the size of Alaska plus Texas.)

Hansen forecast peak ice loss in Antarctica, which has also been decimated.
