Model output from 'Geologically constrained 2-million-year-long simulations of Antarctic Ice Sheet retreat and expansion through the Pliocene'

This dataset contains time-evolving Antarctic ice sheet model output spanning the Pliocene, for the two 'best-fit' model simulations (the most geologically consistent; i.e., the highest-scoring based on model-data evaluation using a suite of marine and terrestrial geologic data, as described in the accompanying manuscript). Continental model simulations are performed at 40km grid resolution, and model history writes occur every 2000 years (from 4.5 - 2.6 Ma). Key 3D model output fields include 'h' (ice thickness), 'ubot' and 'vbot' (basal ice velocity components), 'hb' (bed elevation). Key 2D fields include 'toti' (total ice volume) and 'esl' (ice sheet configuration converted to sea level equivalent).
