Nature Geoscience has published my paper about a dome of freshwater that has built up in the western Arctic in recent years. This map shows the trend in the sea surface height between 1995 and 2010, measured by ESA satellites. It's from this data we've calculated the change in the freshwater. For more information see the BBC or you can watch my UCL lunch hour lecture about it here.
