Numerical simulations of Southern Ocean sea ice were conducted using the Los Alamos numerical sea ice model CICE version 4 (CICE4) which was configured in stand-alone mode on a moderately high-resolution Southern Ocean grid. The atmospheric forcing was derived from the hemispheric forecasting model...

Numerical simulations of Southern Ocean sea ice were conducted using the Los Alamos numerical sea ice model CICE version 4 (CICE4) which was configured in stand-alone mode on a moderately high-resolution Southern Ocean grid.
