For the well-surveyed period 2009–2014, we are able to close the glacier mass budget within the prescribed errors. During these 5 years, the glacier geodetic mass balance was −0.69 ± 0.12 m w.e. a<jats:sup>−1</jats:sup>, while the mass budget method led to a total mass balance of −0.92 ± 0.16 m w.e. a<jats:sup>−1</jats:sup>, as a consequence of a strong frontal ablation (−0.78 ± 0.11 m w.e. a<jats:sup>−1</jats:sup>), and a slightly negative climatic mass balance (−0.14 ± 0.11 m w.e. a<jats:sup>−1</jats:sup>). The trend towards more negative climatic mass balance between 1966–1990 (+0.20 ± 0.05 m w.e. a<jats:sup>−1</jats:sup>) and 2009–2014 is not reflected in the geodetic mass balance trend. Therefore, we suspect a reduction in ice-discharge in the most recent period. Yet, these multidecadal changes in ice-discharge cannot be measured from the available observations and thus are only estimated with relatively large errors as a residual of the mass continuity equation. Our study presents the multidecadal evolution of the dynamics and mass balance of a tidewater glacier and illustrates the errors introduced by inferring one unmeasured mass-balance component from the others.</jats:p> Closing the mass budget of a tidewater glacier: the example of Kronebreen, Svalbard Journal of Glaciology
