Satellite-Based Data Assimilation System for the Initialization of Arctic Sea Ice Concentration and Thickness Using CICE5
The satellite-derived sea ice concentration (SIC) and thickness (SIT) observation over the Arctic region are assimilated by implementing the Ensemble Optimal Interpolation (EnOI) into the Community Ice CodE version 5.1.2 (CICE5) model. The assimilated observations are derived from Special Sensor Mic...
