Model results of Amundsen Sea freshwater tracing and iceberg variation simulations
This data set represents the model results plotted in the figures in Bett et al. (2020). Data portrays Amundsen Sea freshwater fluxes and freshwater passive tracer results, along with the results on the effect of grounded icebergs and iceberg melt on sea ice and oceanic heat content. These results are derived from Amundsen Sea regional model simulations over the period 1979-2018, with the first 10 years regarded as model spin up. For full descriptions of the results plotted in each figure see Bett et al. (2020).
