The Arctic sea ice drift simulation from October 2010 to December 2016

The simulated sea ice drift data is a by-product from a sea ice thickness assimilation system that generates the Arctic 'Combined Model and Satellite sea ice Thickness (CMST; doi:10.1594/PANGAEA.891475) ' dataset.The data also provide the ocean current velocity where ice free. To obtain th...

Description
Summary:The simulated sea ice drift data is a by-product from a sea ice thickness assimilation system that generates the Arctic 'Combined Model and Satellite sea ice Thickness (CMST; doi:10.1594/PANGAEA.891475) ' dataset.The data also provide the ocean current velocity where ice free. To obtain the sea ice drift on the geographic coordinate, a transformation must be done as following:uE = AngleCS * SIuice - AngleSN * SIvice;vN = AngleSN * SIuice + AngleCS * SIvice;where uE and vN are two velocity components on the geographic coordinate; AngleCS and AngleSN can be found in 'grid.cdf'; SIuice and SIvice are sea ice velocity on model mesh.
