Description

This data set includes the minimal data necessary to reproduce the findings of Wekerle et al., in revision. Output of model simulations with the global ocean sea ice model FESOM2.1 is provided. In particular, the data set includes:

a) long term means of potential temperature, salinity, velocity and basal melt of the 79N Glacier averaged over 1970-2021 (Wekerle2024_FESOM2_ltm_REF.nc)

b) annual means of maximum potential temperature and basal melt rate of the 79N Glacier from the reference experiment REF for the years 1970-2021 (Wekerle2024_FESOM2_annual_avg_REF.nc)

c) annual means of maximum potential temperature and basal melt rate of the 79N Glacier from experiment CLIM for the years 2000-2021 (Wekerle2024_FESOM2_annual_avg_CLIM.nc)

d) daily mean basal melt rates of experiments with varying subglacial discharge averaged over the years 2010-2014 (Wekerle2024_FESOM2_daily_avg_EXP_subglacial_discharge.nc)

e) daily mean basal melt rates of experiments with varying drag coefficients for the year 2000 (Wekerle2024_FESOM2_daily_EXP_basal_drag.nc)

Each netcdf file includes information on the model grid (longitude and latitude of nodes, depths of the vertical layers, elements, nodal areas).
