Description
Summary:The following is a summary of processed model output data from a series of HiLAT model runs. A description of the model runs and visualization of model output and analysis can be found in the accompanying manuscript. Gibson, G.A., Weijer, W., Jeffery, N. and Wang, S (2020) Relative impact of sea ice and temperature changes on Arctic marine production. Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences. DOI:10.1029/2019JG005343 The model outputs and accompanying research was supported by the National Science Foundation 173886 and by DOE | SC |Biological and Environmental Research (BER). There are 4 versions of most output file types, corresponding to the 4 experiments that were conducted. These experiments are: i) the baseline model simulation (Base); ii) a moderate ice reduction experiment (S1); iii) a dramatic ice reduction experiment (S2); and iv) an atmospheric warming scenario (RCP45). Each of the 4 experiments is described in detail in Gibson et al (2020). Many variables in the output files are regional averages where model regions are indicated by a number *note - for aesthetics, the numbering used in the model output files differs slightly from the numbering used in the accompanying manuscript.

Forcing ncep_RCP45 ncep.t_10.T62.*.nc where * is 1948-2009 These files contain the modified atmospheric forcing used for the RCP45 model experiment. The unmodified NCEP forcing is freely publically available elsewhere to not duplicated here Ice Ice-Regional-Monthly-177-186-*.nc where * indicates model run - Base, S1, S2 or RCP45. These file contain the monthly averaged ice variables (ice area, ice algae production) ...
