Models of mountain (alpine) glaciers are applied to solve similar problems to those models used for polar ice sheets, but typically have a higher resolution (a smaller grid size) and need to consider the effects of steep and often variable bed slopes, and the transverse stresses found in valley glaciers.

Unlike the great ice sheet of Antarctica, the Greenland ice sheet is melting both on its surface and also at outlet glaciers that drain the ice sheet's mass through deep fjords, where these glaciers extend out into the ocean and often terminate in dynamic calving fronts, giving up gigaton - sized icebergs at times.

So, while the specific size of the ice sheet was different, the overall conditions are degraded in ways not likely to have existed in the past all at the same time.
