| Summary: | Repository updates Update on Sep 5th 2022: The repository now includes NESOSIM v1.1 output from September 1st 2021 to April 30th 2022 Update on June 7th 2022: The repository now includes NESOSIM v1.1 output from September 1st 2021 to March 31st 2022 Update on March 8th 2021: The gridded forcing files are now available in the gridded_forcings.zip file. Data are stored as Python pickles which can be easily read in by the core NESOSIM source code. Update on March 8th 2021: The repository now includes zip files of gridded forcing (snowfall, winds, ice drift, ice concentration, initial conditions) as well as gridded Operation IceBridge snow depths. Update on January 30th 2021: The repository now also includes a NESOSIM v1.1. daily gridded snow climatology using the mean (np.nanmean) of all data available between September 1 2010 and April 30 2020. Overview NESOSIM is a three-dimensional, two-layer (vertical), Eulerian snow on sea ice budget model developed with the primary aim of producing daily estimates of the depth and density of snow on sea ice across the polar oceans through the winter accumulation season, generally September through April (Petty et al., 2018). This repository contains model output from September 1st 1980 to April 30th 2021 [and September 1st 2021 to March 31st 2022 as of June 7th 2022] based on the NESOSIM v1.1 code release which is available on GitHub (https://github.com/akpetty/NESOSIM/tree/v1.1) and archived through Zenodo (10.5281/zenodo.4448355). More information about changes between the v1.0 and v1.1 model framework can be found in those links. A preprint is now available in The Cryosphere Discuss explaining these upgrades and their impacts on ICESat-2 winter Arctic sea ice thickness estimates (Petty et al., 2022). Data production: Data are re-initialized at the end of summer each year (September 1st) using summer near-surface air temperature-scaled initial snow depths and run through until the end of April of the following year. The 1987-1988 winter is missing due to the lack of ... |
