Fig. 2

a Time series of GrIS refreezing capacity from CESM2-forced RACMO2.3p2 for the historical period (1950–2014), SSP1-2.6 and SSP5-8.5 (2015–2099) scenarios. The coloured bands in a span the minimum and maximum refreezing capacity of individual GrIS sectors. b and c Time series of refreezing spatially integrated over the GrIS and SW sector for the historical, SSP1-2.6 and SSP5-8.5 simulations. The black line in ac represents the reanalysis-forced RACMO2.3p2 simulation (1958–2020)10. d Refreezing trend from the CESM2-forced RACMO2.3p2 projection under SSP5-8.5 over 2080–2099. Black contour represents the equilibrium line altitude (ELA) in 2080–2099 and hatching outlines insignificant trends (P \( > \) 0.05). Dashed coloured lines in ac represent trends for the period 2080–2099.
