    Description: Glacier surface mass-balance measurements on Greenland started more than a century ago, but no compilation exists of the observations from the ablation area of the ice sheet and local glaciers. Such data could be used in the evaluation of modelled surface mass balance, or to document changes in glacier melt independently from model output. Here, we present a comprehensive database of Greenland glacier surface mass-balance observations from the ablation area of the ice sheet and local glaciers. The database spans the 123 a from 1892 to 2015, contains a total of ~3000 measurements from 46 sites, and is openly accessible through the PROMICE web portal (http://www.promice.dk). For each measurement we provide X, Y and Z coordinates, starting and ending dates as well as quality flags. We give sources for each entry and for all metadata. Two thirds of the data were collected from grey literature and unpublished archive documents. Roughly 60% of the measurements were performed by the Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland (GEUS, previously GGU). The data cover all regions of Greenland except for the southernmost part of the east coast, but also emphasize the importance of long-term time series of which there are only two exceeding 20 a. We use the data to analyse uncertainties in point measurements of surface mass balance, as well as to estimate surface mass-balance profiles for most regions of Greenland.

    Description: During the austral summer seasons 1999/2000 and 2000/2001 the summer base"Kohnen" was built as a platform for the EPICA deep ice core drilling in DronningMaud Land, Antarctica. The design is based on prefabricated container units. Thebase was erected within two summer seasons. Overland traverses with Pistenbullytractors and cargo sledges moved all needed material and base containers from theGerman base Neumayer at the Antarctic coast to the base Kohnen 750 km inland.All installations are completed at the end of the 2000/2001 season including thedrill and science trench with a cased 100-m borehole. Thus everything is preparedto start the deep drilling operation during the 2001/2002 austral summer season.
