Recent and longer term thinning of the Amundsen Sea Embayment sector ice sheet. Regional colours represent rate of elevation change derived from two decades of satellite radar altimetry. Circled colours represent recent elevation changes derived from airborne altimetry flown in 2002. The difference in the two surveys indicates a recent increase in the rate of thinning (from Thomas et al., 2004b[1])
