Definition of Class 1-4 metrics for the Arctic
This document aims to describe sea-ice metrics. Metrics types are: • Class1: Standard model products 2D and 3D interpolated fields on a regular polar stereographic grid • Class2: Other model products 2D fields along sections, 1D tables at point locations. • Class3: derived quantities computed on a d...
