These data accompany the publication "Contrasting current and future surface melt rates on the ice sheets of Greenland and Antarctica: lessons from in situ observations and climate models". The data are organized as follows: - two files with time series (csv) of hourly near-surface climate and surface energy balance values for Neumayer station (ice shelf, East Antarctic ice sheet) and automatic weather station S5 (southwest Greenland ice sheet) - two files (nc) with monthly melt fields from the regional climate model RACMO2.3p2 forced by ERA5 over Greenland (0.05-degree resolution) and Antarctica (0.25-degree resolution) - two files (nc) with annual melt fields from the regional climate model RACMO2.3p2 forced by CESM2 over Greenland (0.1-degree resolution) and Antarctica (0.25-degree resolution) or the historical period (1950-2014) - two files (nc) with annual melt fields from the regional climate model RACMO2.3p2 forced by CESM2 over Greenland (0.1-degree resolution) and Antarctica (0.25-degree resolution) ...
