Description
Summary:MAR simulations produced by Marion Donat-Magnin at IGE, Grenoble, France. This simulation is evaluated in the following article: Donat-Magnin, M., Jourdain, N. C., Gallée, H., Amory, C., Kittel, C., Fettweis, X., Wille, J. D., Favier, V., Drira, A., and Agosta, C. (2020). Interannual variability of summer surface mass balance and surface melting in the Amundsen sector, West Antarctica, The Cryosphere, 14, 229–249, https://doi.org/10.5194/tc-14-229-2020 Here are provided the monthly means over 1979-2017. Daily outputs available on demand. See netcdf metadata for more information. Note that what is called runoff in the outputs is not actually a runoff (into the ocean) but more the net production of liquid water at the surface (which can either form ponds or flow into the ocean). Monthly files provided on MAR grid (see MAR_grid10km.nc). We also provide climatological (1979-2017 average) surface mass balance (SMB), surface melt rates and net liquid water production ("runoff") on a standard 8km WGS84 stereographic grid (see files ending as mean_polar_stereo.nc). The following variables are provided: CC Cloud Cover LHF Latent Heat Flux LWD Long Wave Downward LWU Long Wave Upward QQp Specific Humidity (pressure levels) QQz Specific Humidity (height levels) RH Relative Humidity SHF Sensible Heat Flux SIC Sea ice cover SP Surface Pressure ST Surface Temperature SWD Short Wave Downward SWU Short Wave Upward TI1 Ice/Snow Temperature (snow-layer levels) TTz Temperature (height levels) UUp x-Wind Speed component (pressure levels) UUz x-Wind Speed component (height levels) VVp y-Wind Speed component (pressure levels) VVz y-Wind Speed component (height levels) UVp Horizontal Wind Speed (pressure levels) UVz Horizontal Wind Speed (height levels) ZZp Geopotential Height (pressure levels) mlt Surface melt rate rfz Refreezing rate rnf Rainfall rof Runoff (i.e. net production of surface liquid water) sbl Sublimation smb Surface Mass Balance snf Snowfall wrong time axis in v1.0 -> corrected in v1.1.
