Abstract:
Model output from a series of idealised ice shelf-ocean simulations, demonstrating a new synchronously coupled modelling method as well as the response of ice shelf buttressing to melt under various temperature forcings.
Keywords:

|---|---|---|
| Quality: | Data presented is monthly mean averages of the model output for various fields. | |
| Lineage: | The model simulations were carried out using MITgcm (www.MITgcm.org) version c66j, with the addition of the changes described in Jordan et al. JGR-Oceans (2017). The model data is supplied in netcdf format with text files of the individual simulation setups also provided. Netcdf files are named inline with their description in Jordan et al. JGR-Oceans (2017), having 7 runs where the number represents the depth of the pycnocline in meters as well as a constant hot and cold forcing. |
