OVERVIEW
- This compressed file contains two directories:
  Directory 1 "GPG_dhdt": Description: Mean elevation change rates in m/yr for the Greenland peripheral glaciers during, Feb 2003 - Oct 2009, Oct 2008 - Apr 2019, and Oct 2018 – June 2023.
  Directory 2 "APG_dhdt": Description: Mean elevation change rates in m/yr for the Antarctica peripheral glaciers during, Feb 2003 - Oct 2009, Oct 2008 - Apr 2019, and Oct 2018 – June 2023.
 
- Mean elevation change rates of both Greenland and Antarctica peripheral glaciers obtained from ICESat and ICESat-2 data. The grid resolution is 500x500 meters. 
  The dataset in .csv files containsElevation Change rate data for Greenland Peripheral Glaciers, Antarctica Peripheral Glaciers (APG) and Antarctic Peninsula (APIS) regions, 
  each covering three different time periods:
  2003-2009
  2009-2018
  2018-2023
  Each region has its own file named as follows: Region_region_number_data.csv 
  APG_dhdt folder: contain files for Antarctica peripheral glaciers. 
  Each file consists of the following columns for each time period:
  Longitude (°) is in polar stereographic (m).
  Latitude (°) is in polar stereographic (m).
  Elevation Change rate (m/yr): Elevation Change rate in meters per year (m/yr).
  Elevation Change rate error (m/yr): Error in the Elevation Change rate, also measured in meters per year (m/yr).
  
  GPG_dhdt folder: contain files for Greenland peripheral glaciers. 
  Each file consists of the following columns for each time period:
  Longitude (°).
  Latitude (°).
  Elevation Change rate (m/yr): Elevation Change rate in meters per year (m/yr).
  Elevation Change rate error (m/yr): Error in the Elevation Change rate, also measured in meters per year (m/yr).
