Description
Summary:Meltwater and ice discharge from a retreating Antarctic Ice Sheet could have important impacts on future global climate. This dataset contains the results from multi-century (present–2250) climate simulations performed using a coupled numerical model integrated under future greenhouse-gas emission scenarios IPCC RCP4.5 and RCP8.5, with meltwater and ice discharge provided by a dynamic-thermodynamic ice sheet model. These results were published in Sadai et al., Science Advances, 2020, Vol. 6, eaaz1169 Please note that ALL the raw model data generated for this project is archived at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution and the University of Massachusetts Amherst and freely available on request.
