Simulation of ice-ocean dynamics in the Weddell Sea. Part I: Model configuration and validation
In the framework of the Bremerhaven Regional Ice Ocean Simulations (BRIOS) a coupled sea ice-ocean model, based on a dynamic-thermodynamic sea ice-model and the S-coordinate Primitive Equation Model (SPEM) has been developed.The model is run on a circumpolar grid which is focussed on the Weddell Sea...
