Description

The .zip files contain all per-ice-sheet-model plots made by the reanalysis workflow used for the associated manuscript for all analyses studying the sensitivity of predicted shelf vulnerability to:

  • RCP (Representative Concentration Pathway): climate scenario
  • AOGCM (Atmosphere-Ocean General Circulation Model): climate model
  • Basal Melt: the parametrization used to convert ocean temperatures into a melt rate for the base of ice shelves
  • Fracture Toughness: the material property the controls ice's resistance to forming crevasse

The files are organized according to Table 2 in the manuscript where each .zip is one of the analysis categories in the first column. Inside each .zip are folders named as [experiment]_[fracture toughness value]_[shelf]. For example, exp07_03_KIC200_Amery has the postproccesed results for exp07 and exp03 analyzed with a fracture toughness of 200 KPa m^1/2 for the Amery ice shelf.

In each folder there are four subfolders that show postprocessed plot from each ice sheet model:

  • R_xx_delta: shows change in resistive stress through time for each ice sheet model
  • R_xx_mifit: shows misfit of model initial state relative to 2014-2017 MEaSUREs with temperature from Comiso (2000) and rheology from Cuffey and Patterson (2010)
  • R_xx_ND_exc: shows change in exceedance of the dimensionless resistive stress threshold through time
  • thickness: shows change in thickness through time
