r11181 r11433 1 %% ================================================================ 2 %% Abstract 3 %% ================================================================ 4 5 %% Common part between NEMO-SI3-TOP 6 ``Sea Ice Modelling Integrated Initiative'' (\SIcube) is the sea ice engine of 7 the \NEMO\ ocean model (``Nucleus for European Modelling of the Ocean''). 8 It is intended to be a flexible tool for studying the sea ice dynamics and thermodynamics, 9 brine inclusions and subgrid-scale thickness variations (``white ocean''), 10 as well as its interactions with the other components of the Earth climate system over 11 a wide range of space and time scales. 12 \SIcube\ is interfaced with the \NEMO\ ocean engine, and, 13 via the \href{http://portal.enes.org/oasis}{OASIS} coupler, 14 with several atmospheric general circulation models. 15 It also supports two-way grid embedding by means of the \href{http://agrif.imag.fr}{AGRIF} software. 16 17 %% Specific part 18 Designed for global to regional applications up to $~$10 km of effective resolution, 19 \SIcube\ is a curvilinear grid, finite-difference implementation of the classical AIDJEX model 20 (Arctic Ice Dynamics Joint EXperiment), 21 combining the conservation of momentum for viscous-plastic continuum, 22 energy and salt-conserving halo-thermodynamics, 23 an explicit representation of subgrid-scale ice thickness variations, snow and melt ponds. 24 An option to switch back to the \textit{single-category} (or \textit{2-level}) framework provides 25 a cheap sea ice modelling solution.
