The High-resolution (6 kilometer (km)) Ice-Ocean Modeling and Assimilation System (HIOMAS) is used to simulate the evolution of sea ice for the Arctic Ocean and adjacent areas, including the Barents Sea, Norwegian Sea, Greenland Sea, Baffin Bay, and waters along Northwest Passage, over the period 2010 to 2069. The hindcast and future forcing over the period is from one of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6 (CMIP6) models, the CNRM-CM6-1-HR global climate model (GCM) run at the National Center for Meteorological Research, Météo-France and CNRS Laboratory (CNRM). Monthly mean sea ice thickness (meters (m)) is provided over 2010 to 2069 in NETCDF file format, with model grid information such as latitudes and longitudes of model grid cells included. I have archived future projection of monthly mean sea ice thickness files over 2010 to 2069 in https://pscfiles.apl.uw.edu/zhang/HIOMAS_6km/. The files are in netcdf format, which are created by running HIOMAS using the future projection forcing of the ...
