Statement

Methodology:

Data was produced using revision c62r of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology General Circulation Model (MITgcm; http://mitgcm.org). The Amundsen Sea model setup used to produce these results is described in detail in Bett et al. (2020).

A longitudinal resolution of 0.1o is used, producing a latitudinal spacing ranging from ~2.8 km in the southern part of the domain to ~ 5.2 km at the northern end of the domain. In the vertical, a z-level coordinate system of 50 levels is used, ranging from 10 m resolution near the top to 200 m near the bottom (reaching 5600 m here).

Data quality:

A centred 2 year running average is applied to the Hovmoller diagram result files leading these files to have N/A values for the first and last years (see Bett et al. (2020) for more details).
