Comment:
The adjusted uplift rates are obtained after subtracting the PGR signal and the elastic signal due to ice loss outside Jakobshavn Isbræ, and subtracting an uplift rate of 4.2 mm/yr from each station. Since by subtracting 4.2 mm/yr, we constrain the observed uplift rate at AASI to the predicted rate, we map the uncertainties at AASI to those at the other sites. Predicted uplift rates in mm/yr due to the melting or unloading of Jakobshavn Isbræ (JI), unloading outside JI, and PGR (PGR uncertainties are not listed here.
