From: Mt. Everest’s highest glacier is a sentinel for accelerating ice loss

Fig. 3

Time/height profiles over Mt. Everest for temperature (2 m). The dashed line indicates the approximate level of Mt. Everest summit. Annual anomalies are relative to 1951–2000 climatology. Data from the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) ERA-5 reanalysis (ERA5)19. The dashed line indicates the approximate level of Mt. Everest summit. Annual anomalies are relative to 1951–2000 climatology. Supplementary Figure 4 reveals the similarity in results between ECMWF ERA-5 and NOAA Twentieth Century Reanalysis Version 3 demonstrating that the inclusion of satellite data in the ERA 5 reanalysis does not impact the interpretation developed in this paper.
