Model outputs for the article "Modelling the evolution of Arctic multiyear sea ice over 2000–2018"

Description

icemod_monthly.tar.gz contains the gridded monthly averaged quantities used in the manuscript "Modelling the evolution of Arctic multiyear sea ice over 2000-2018" for each year between 2000 and 2018.

Multiyear ice variables are conc_myi (concentration of multiyear ice in a grid cell) and thick_myi (cell average thickness of multiyear ice in a grid cell, in metres), along with source and sink terms (units per day) for multiyear concentration (dci_mlt_myi, dci_ridge_myi and dci_rplnt_myi, for melt, ridging and replenishment) and volume (dvi_mlt_myi and dvi_rplnt_myi, for melt and replenishment).

transports_monthly_sections.zip contains the transports of multiyear ice through the sections defining each region in Figure 8 of the paper. MYIsiaXport indicates multiyear ice area transport, while myiXport indicates multiyear ice volume transport.
