Summary

Abstract: This data set contains ice concentration (fraction of ice), and sea surface temperature analysis from the met.no operational coupled ice-ocean model Arctic-20. Each file contains one month of daily analysis valid at 00 GMT. The quality of this data set will vary due to model upgrades, and should therefore in the long term, improve with time. New model-versions are tested semi-operationally before they are included in this data set.
