Causal relation between processes leading to a high‐end contribution of Glaciers to sea level rise (SLR). Climate forcing leads to patterns of temperature (ΔT) and precipitation (ΔP) change over the globe (colored stripes global mean change). These local climate variables control the surface mass balance (SMB) and thereby the volume change of glaciers which determines the SLR by the glacier component. Ice dynamics are usually highly simplified in glacier models and therefore omitted here.
