Abstract:
This dataset contains Weddell Sea limited region ocean ice shelf model (NEMO) outputs. The included experiments were designed to look at the influence of far-field changes in temperature and salinity to changes in melt rates in the Filchner-Ronne Ice Shelf melt rate.
Funding was provided by the Filchner Ice Shelf System project NE/L013770/1.
