Bias-corrected CMIP6 Daily Sea Ice Concentration in the Barents and Kara Seas
Daily sea ice concentration (1950 - 2050) from models participating in version 6 of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project is reprojected to the WGS84/NSIDC 25-km North Polar Stereographic grid (EPSG: 3413) using the NOAA/NSIDC Climate Data Record of passive microwave-derived sea ice concentratio...
