The 2010 uplift anomaly (green arrows) for all GPS stations in Greenland where it could be reliably computed, superimposed on a map showing the 2010 melting day anomaly that was produced by R. Simmon at the NASA Earth Observatory using data provided by M. Tedesco (13). When we take into account the tendency for the earth’s elastic response to ice loss to decrease with distance from the unloading area (i.e., the ice margin), then the spatial correlation between the uplift anomaly and the melting day anomaly is apparent. The standard errors associated with the 2010 uplift anomaly estimates are listed in SI Appendix, Table S2. They are typically close to approximately 1.75 mm.
