| Summary: | Data are available at https://arcticdata.io/data/10.18739/A2G73751P/. PAROMS model development has been supported by a variety of funding agencies, including the North Pacific Research Board project 1302, the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, grant M15AC 00011 and the National Science Foundation grant OPP-1603116. The model computes ocean velocity, temperature, salinity, pressure and sea ice characteristics on a telescoping grid that stretches from south of the Aleutian Islands in the North Pacific across the Arctic Ocean to the North Atlantic Ocean. We use the Regional Ocean Modeling System (ROMS), described by Shchepetkin and McWilliams (2005). Our model implementation, which we refer to as the Pan-Arctic ROMS model (or PAROMS), is set up using ROMS options for high-order algorithms of tracer advection (3rd order upwind in the horizontal direction and 4th order centered in the vertical direction); surface and bottom boundary layers following the K-Profile Parameterization (Large et al., 1994); and atmosphere-ocean bulk flux computations based on the ocean model prognostic variables (Fairall et al., 2003; Large and Yeager, 2009).
