Regional summaries from Arctic high-resolution sea ice-ocean forced modelling hindcasts (2008-2021) and forced modelling projections (2000-2050) as part of the PRE-MELT project. ...

Two sea ice-ocean forced modelling datasets (hindcasts and projections) were produced to analyse oceanic impacts on retreat of the Arctic sea-ice pack in the high Arctic, from areas of the Transpolar drift, north of Greenland and in the Fram Strait in the present and future climates and how those ar...

Description
Summary:Two sea ice-ocean forced modelling datasets (hindcasts and projections) were produced to analyse oceanic impacts on retreat of the Arctic sea-ice pack in the high Arctic, from areas of the Transpolar drift, north of Greenland and in the Fram Strait in the present and future climates and how those are linked to the changes in the Arctic ecosystems. The model outputs span the Arctic Ocean proper and the sub-Arctic seas, covering the near-present (2008-2021: hindcasts) and future climate (2000-2050: projections). The forced modelling hindcasts were generated using the Global Ocean and Sea Ice GO8p7, developed under the Joint Marine Modelling Programme (JMMP), a collaboration between NOC, BAS and the UK Met Office. GO8p7 is based on NEMO v4.0 and the SI3 sea ice model and includes a package of modifications, including a scale-dependent Gent and McWilliams parameterisation, partial slip lateral boundary conditions south of 50°S and 4th-order horizontal tracer advection. The present simulation done under the ACSIS ...
