Zusammenfassung |
The representation of polynyas in viscous-plastic dynamic-thermodynamic sea-ice models is studied
in a simplified test domain, in order to give recommendations about parametrisation choices.
Bjornsson et al. (2001) validated their dynamic-thermodynamic model against a polynya
flux model in a similar setup and we expand on that work here, testing more sea-ice rheologies and
new-ice thickness formulations. The two additional rheologies tested give nearly identical results
whereas the two new-ice thickness parametrisations tested give widely different results. Based on
our results we argue for using the new-ice thickness parametrisation of Hibler (1979). We also
implement a new parametrisation for the parameter h0 from Hibler's scheme, based on ideas from a
collection depth parametrisation for flux polynya models. |
