Ọnọdụ ihu igwe nke Greenland
Ọnọdụ ihu igwe nke Greenland bụ ihu igwe tundra (Köppen ET) na nso ụsọ mmiri na ihu igwe ice cap (Köpp EF) na mpaghara ime obodo. Ọ na-enwekarị oge okpomọkụ dị mkpirikpi, dị jụụ na ogologo oge oyi dị jụụ.

There is concern about sea level rise caused by ice loss (melt and glaciers falling into the sea) on Greenland. Between 1997 and 2003 ice loss was , compared to about  for 1993/4-1998/9. Half of the increase was from higher summer melting, with the rest caused by the movements of some glaciers exceeding the speeds needed to balance upstream snow accumulation. A complete loss of ice on Greenland would cause a sea level rise of as much as .

Ndị na-eme nchọpụta na NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory na Mahadum Kansas kọrọ na Febụwarị 2006 na ice na-agbaze okpukpu abụọ karịa ka ha dị afọ ise gara aga. Ka ọ na-erule afọ 2005, Greenland na-amalite ịla ọtụtụ ice karịa ka onye ọ bụla tụrụ anya ya - ọnwụ kwa afọ nke ihe ruru 52 cubic miles ma ọ bụ 217 cubic kilometres kwa afọ, dị ka nyocha nke ike ndọda satellite nke JPL wepụtara. Mmụba nke ice nwere ike ịkwụsị site na mmụba nke snow n'ihi mmụba mmiri ozuzo.
