ACSIS: Pan-Arctic sea ice simulations CICEv5.1.2 with prognostic melt pond model and EAP rheology without modifications with NCEP Reanalysis-2 atmospheric forcing data from 1980 - 2020

This dataset includes model output from a stand-alone ice simulation to document the impact of sea ice physics and atmospheric forcing data on the Arctic sea ice evolution produced for the The North Atlantic Climate System Integrated Study (ACSIS). This uses the same sea ice model CICE configuration GSI8.1 (Ridley et al., 2018) with an atmospheric forcing data set are applied: NCEP Reanalysis-2 (NCEP2) data (Kanamitsu et al., 2002, updated 2020). Regarding the sea ice component, we use the default CICE setup as in HadGEM3 (CICE-default) and an advanced setup (CICE-best) in which a new process is added (snow loss due to drifting snow) and some adjustments have been made to model physics and parameters.

The specific parameters for this dataset are:

sea ice model: CICEv5.1.2 with prognostic melt pond model and EAP rheology

ocean model: mixed-layer

period: 1980-2020

atmospheric forcing: NCEP2

domain: pan-Arctic

grid resolution: 1deg ORCA

The simulation was performed by the Centre of Polar Observation and Modelling (CPOM) at University of Reading under the ACSIS project. ACSIS was funded by the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) through National Capability Long Term Science Multiple Centre (NC LTS-M) grant NE/N018028/1.
