*** Time serie files GRACE_no_GIA_err.zip (= time series with GIA correction applied and cumulative GIA uncertainties INCLUDED in total uncertainties) and GRACE_no_GIA_noerr.zip ( = time series with GIA correction applied but cumulative GIA uncertainties NOT INCLUDED in total uncertainties):

First column: files contain data (decimal years)
Second column: mass anomaly w.r.t. arbitrary reference [Gigatonnes]
Third column: uncertainty estimate [Gigatonnes]

*** The annual mass balance files contain mass change between Mar 31 and Apr 1 and Sep 30 - Oct 1, respectively, for the 17 RGI regions defined in our Frontiers paper. Two files are provided, as total mass balance and specific mass balance. ER -
