Keen, A., Blockley, E., Bailey, D. A., Boldingh Debernard, J., Bushuk, M., Delhaye, S., … Wyser, K. (2021). An inter-comparison of the mass budget of the Arctic sea ice in CMIP6 models. The Cryosphere, 15, 951-982. doi:10.5194/tc-15-951-2021
We compare the mass budget of the Arctic sea ice for 15 models submitted to the latest Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP6), using new diagnostics that have not been available for previous model intercomparisons. These diagnostics allow us to look beyond the standard metrics of ice cover... Show moreWe compare the mass budget of the Arctic sea ice for 15 models submitted to the latest Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP6), using new diagnostics that have not been available for previous model intercomparisons. These diagnostics allow us to look beyond the standard metrics of ice cover and thickness to compare the processes of sea ice growth and loss in climate models in a more detailed way than has previously been possible.
